Katzhagen - Archive - June 2011

Tickets please !


After quite a long time there finally was an occasion for running the trains again. A complete weekend and best weather provided for lots of fun with numerous trains.
The RhB Ge 4/4 II 612 Thusis which had a facelift lately also was put into service. It now corresponds to its prototype's current condition and it fulfills the expectations regarding its appearance.


It seems Katzhagen is located in Switzerland...

Facelifted Thusis - the result pays for the efforts.

Both retrofit and paint work on the old Thusis finally could be finished. The whole metamorphosis has been documented step by step and can be found in the projects area.

Fuel, coal and whatever else is needed...

You can tell the age of the boys from the price of their toys


Arrival and departure. The idea of a second track springs to mind...

This was lots of fun once again - next time with steamers then.
