 30 years of Dampflokfreunde Salzwedel - Memories In March 2002, we commemorated the freight traffic of the 1980s in the Altmark. Therefore, a freight train with our steam locomotive 50 3682 ran on two days from Salzwedel via Oebisfelde to Magdeburg and back. Today's weekly photo was taken in Dambeck, just as the train was passing the striking stork's nest. |
