I spent the last two weeks on holiday in the northern Harz Mountains in eastern Germany.
Due to severe cold I suffered in the first week I couldn't spent as much time as planned on
riding trains on the Harzer Schmallspurbahnen (Harz Narrow Gauge Railway"
But last thursday I was able to ride on the Selketalbahn from Stiege (with turning loop) to Eisfelder Talmühle
(where the Selketalbahn joins the Harz Querbahn from Nordhausen to Wernigerode"
During the summertimbetabel some trains on the Selketalbahn which runs usually with a diesel railcar are
exchanged with steam loco hauled trains. These happens from thursday to saturday.
I made a short film of my train ride.

Looks like a good trip despite the weather. I went up to the HSB  in Feb I think, lots of snow and spent 2 days travelling about two thirds of the HSB route but not Nordhausen. So need to organise another trip!  Nice video. Thanks for posting. T

I liked the parallel running half way through the video.

Also, it looked like there weren't very many passengers - is that normal for May/June?
