TRAIN TIME: Nürnberg Verkehrsmuseum pt 3

Last week Train time was interrupted for the July 4th Holiday so let's get back on track as it were. We'll continue with some more pics from the Nürnberg Verkehrsmuseum. Enjoy!  My Wife & Me Enjoyed it very much :)


Adler (Eagle) Steam Locomotive

The original Adler was built in 1835, but in 1858 after many years of hard service it was scrapped. The photos below show the reproduction Adler built in 1935









Wooden second class passenger wagon No 8 of the Bavarian Ludwig Railway (built 1835, rebuilt between 1838 and 1846)

TRAIN TIME: Nürnberg Verkehrsmuseum pt 2

Howz about we continue our look at those excellent trains from the Nürnberg Verkehrsmuseum  (Nuremburg, Germany, Transportation Museum). Today we're going to look at the fabulous engine and Salon Wagons of the Royal Bavarian Railway. These are absolutely gorgeous rolling works of art and I'm still taken aback at their beauty! I can remember being frustrated at the narrow confines of the museum making it difficult to get good shots. Also, I just didn't have a real good wide-angle lens which would have helped somewhat. Still it was a remarkable experience. Enjoy!
