Goethweg

HSB 99 222 with the 12:45 train from Drei Annen Hohne to Brocken at Goetheweg on 18 September 2017. This shot was taken from the 13:14 train from Brocken to Drei Annen Hohne, sitting in the passing spur. Pre-war there was also a station here, for the benefit of hikers of the Harz Club. This locomotive features on the tickets for the Wernigerode-Brocken service - See image 61799, and as Bill Jamieson pointed out, is rather special with it's cylindrical feed-water heater - in late DDR days it looked very much like the other 2-10-2Ts as it had been fitted with the same type of heater as them.
