Let’s take ride on the German narrow gauge from Wernigerode to the top of the Brocken on the Harz Ry. and Brocken Ry. in Harz Mountains of Germany in 2001. On the way we meet other trains at Drei Annen Hohne and Schierke. The 99 222 that is pulling our train is the last of class still running. Built in 1931, the engine of 3 of this class built. The other two were scrapped in the late ’40s and early ’50s The train we are riding is pulled by one of the 2-10-2T Class 99 locomotives that are common on narrow gauge lines around Germany. The track gauge on this line is 1000mm or 3ft. 3 3/8inches. The drivers on these engines are small.. 800 to 1000mm or 31 to 39.3 inches in diameter. They run at a boiler pressure of 14 Bar or about 200 PSI, usually burning oil. They have a maximum tractive effort of about 23000 lbs. Most of this video was shot from the platform of one of the passenger cars, moving from one side to other to get the engine as the train went around the many curves.

Oktober 2011 herrscht reges Treiben im Bahnhof Wernigerode. 99 7243-1 befährt die Drehscheibe, um auf das Anschlussgleis zum Bahnhofsgelände zu gelangen. Kurze Zeit später passiert 99 7234-0 eben dieses und fährt an ihren Zug nach Eisfelder Talmühle heran. Nachdem der morgendliche Triebwagen aus Eisfelder Talmühle in den Bahnhof eingefahren ist, erhält die Lok grünes Licht und verlässt daraufhin den Bahnhof in Richtung Wernigerode Westerntor. Das Harzkamel 199 861-6 wartet die ganze Zeit auf dem Nachbargleis, um einige Minuten später die Wagen für den Brockenzug aus dem Wagenwerk in den Bahnhof zu ziehen.
