DB No. 78 246, Horb to Rottweil, 2nd May 1974
The last surviving Prussian T18 Class 4-6-4T in West Germany, No. 078 246-6, which managed to outlive its P8 4-6-0 tender equivalents by a short time, was still at work in May 1974, carrying its old number 78 246. On Thursday the 2nd it is at the head of the 13:12 train from Horb, stopping at all stations to Rottweil along the valley of the River Neckar. The train consisted of six six-wheeled coaches and unfortunately the weather was not conducive to adventurous photography! The engine is now preserved at the museum in Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg. Slide No. 12821.
