Germany in 1992 this afternoon with images from Nordhausen and Wernigerode at the ends of the Harzquerbahn.

 

There is a mix of standard and metre gauge track visible.

Calais in April 1983 for today, taken on Dad's trip to Paris that Spring.  Mum and Dad travelled by train that year as they didn't want to have a car with them in Paris.

Mainly Fluelen today together with one from Arth Goldau, obviously we are still in Switzerland.

 

The railway is visible in the first photo, if you look carefully.  It is at the right hand end, just above the water.   The structure part way up the cliff on the left is the road.

 

The railway at Fluelen has changed a lot since these photos were taken, as have many stations in Switzerland since the late 80s.

By way of comparison, here are a couple I took at Goslar in 2014:

The semaphore signals seem to be much as they were in 1992, and are probably still there today, although I believe the 218s have now finished on that line.

Some more of Dad's Paris photos from April 1983.  He didn't have good weather.

 

I have taken the captions from his notes, if you can see railway items in all of them you are doing well, because I honestly cannot.

Always interesting to sleepers in daylight. Do you remember what time of day this would have been taken? Assuming the train would have left Roma around 20.00 and Milano before midnight, presumably it was fairly early in the morning.

I took it at 10.58 a.m.    I suspect it may have been running late unless the sleepers were simply being worked as ecs at the head of the train.

 

I noted the time for almost all my Swiss photos.

Today's somewhat belated photos are from Zurich Oerlikon.

 

They were taken during my last hours in Switzerland that summer, on my way to the airport.

Sorry, that's all the information I have on it, taken from Dad's notes.

 

David

Thank you, Dave.  I don't think it's an SNCB loco (though it could be from Belgium) and it seems to have gone by the time the lists I have to hand were compiled.  As I'm interested in these things, I'll have a dig around to see whether I can find its identity and subsequent history.

A bit of hunting around has turned up some interesting (hopefully), though sad, information.

 

The locomotive is an 0-6-0T built by Couillet in Belgium (works number 1777 of 1923) which worked at the Segré iron mines (France).  It appears to have ceased working in 1960 and stayed in a deteriorating condition on-site until it was bought by a private collector who put it on display with two Wagon-Lits coaches (diner no. 4217 and lounge car ex-sleeper no. 3835) in connection with a restaurant at the Paris Heliport, Porte de Sèvres.

 

There is a photo of the loco at its industrial location down this page: http://forum.e-train.fr/viewtopic.php?t=73905

 

In 1991, the locomotive and carriages were exported to Japan, to be put on display there by a hotel at Lake Biwa.  In the early 2000s both carriages and locomotives could not be found and are thought to have been scrapped.

 

[Edit] It also appears that these was also a Kriegslok and several other carriages displayed at the same place in Japan - also scrapped, apparently.  http://www.jnsforum.com/community/topic/5455-looking-for-german-steam-loco-at-lake-biwa/
