Rudi was onboard as the nostalgic steam train chugged through the beautiful Franken countryside on Saturday the 15th of March.
The journey was sponsored by the organization of train enthusiasts named GleisGlück.
The train originated in Würzburg and continued the half-day journey to Gemünden am Main, after making several stops to refill the water tanks. Rudi received a warm welcome from the engineer.
The 1912 model steam engine or „Dampfzug“ pulled vintage wagons from the 1960‘s that were common all over Germany until the new designs were rolled out after the year 2000.
