One of the widest variety of locomotive classes we’ve seen for a good while are featured in our tour around Hannover. At Lehrte we have classes 101, 120, 111, 112, 146, 152, 155, 185, 401, 402 & SBB 482. We head west to Wunstorf where Classes 101, 120, 204, 214, 215, 216, 294, 142, 146, 151, 152, 155, 182, 185, 401, 402, 424, SBB 421 & 482 are witnessed!


This programme takes an extended look at rail operations through the Rhine Valley starting close to Bingen and continuing north to just short of Koblenz. At Bingen we are on the left bank line which sees the majority of passenger services and fast freight. ICE, 101, 120, 143, 185/5, 189, 460 and 628 are all seen here. Moving north along the river we visit such places as Kaub, Bacharach, Oberwesel, Boppard, Lorch and Loreley where some of our long pan shots make the most of the superb scenery and the busy river traffic. Trains are filmed along either side of the river and offer, in addition to those listed above, classes 151, 155, 185, 139, 221, 1116, 484 on non-passenger services with the highlight being preserved and ex-works condition, green-liveried 140 128 on a test run from Koblenz - and all filmed in 2012 and 2013 in splendid sunshine!


It’s Bavaria next as we take a look at traction on the München to Augsburg mainline with classes 423, 440, 120, 101, ICE, 1116, 185, 189, 151 and 151 on a range of passenger and freight services.
