New timetable started today with Agilis Class 440 units taking over regional services to Regensburg/Neumarkt. http://www.agilis.de/files/agilis-streckenkarte.pdf With DB 440s working Munchen-Passau services, I think this might be the end of loco-hauled RB/RE services at Plattling. Doug

BTW Busnut, where was the picture of the rabbit in your User phot taken? Hi Jon, It's taken from a webcam that used to cover the rebuilding of the Salzachbrücke in Salzburg. Doug

What next! BR Class 86s and 87s? Anyone know the route taken and dates of moving to Hungary and Bulgaria? Here you go. I managed to catch this 86 being towed through Plattling on 25th April. I believe the 87's went by barge.

It could be one of the batch loaned to their german subsidiary ITL. According to http://www.privat-bahn.de/ITL.html they have 37022-27. These can be seen as far as Dresden and Hamburg. Doug

In Internet Explorer, the webcam saves a jpeg file to the Temporary Internet Files folder every second or so. As soon as I see a train of interest, I go into my Temporary Internet Files and move the last few 'current.jpg' files into My Pictures and choose the best one to keep. For the most recent files make sure your Temporary Internet Files are sorted by either Last Modified or Last Accessed or Last Checked column. Doug

The most interesting workings from this morning RBH 143s running round oil train That Voith again Rurtalbahn/Railpool 185 Doug

Great webcam isn't it. I keep an eye on it from time to time. Shame I missed the Siemens locos and the Maxima. Here's a steam special from last Friday. Doug
