A 4,000 tonne iron-ore train from the docks at Emden passes Hanekenfaehre (near Lingen) at 10:21 on Saturday 7 September 1974 and enters the single track section over the River Ems. Motive power consists of oil-fired 2-8-2 No. 042 241 and coal fired 2-10-0 No. 044 534. Most of the 3-cylinder 2-10-0s which worked the Rheine-Emden line were oil-fired (latterly class 043) and shedded at Rheine, the coal fired ones of class 044 were allocated to Emden.
