Poster promoting the use of Siemens-Schuckert generators for hydroelectric power plants - circa 1931.
Lok 1036 (Ex Rodder 73) Industriedenkmal Schmalspurkohlebahn Henschel Fabriknummer 26515 (mit Elektrik-Teil von Siemens-Schuckert)’ Baujahr 1948 Bauart EL 4, Gleichstrom (1200V), Achsfolge Bo’Bo‘ (Schmalspur 900 mm) Dienstgewicht: 75t Leistung 760kW Vmax: 40km/h Diese Lok zog früher Abraum und Rohbraunkohle im Rheinischen Braunkohlerevier. Sie wurde durch den Förderkreis der Schmalspurkohlebahn Alt-Hürth e.V. und vielen freiwilligen Helfern und Firmen aus dem Umkreis vor der Verschrottung gerettet und liebevoll restauriert. Auch heute kümmert sich der Verein um die Lokomotive und verschiedenen ebenfalls zum Industriedenkmal gehörenden Wagen (Abraumwagen, Kohlewagen, Flachwagen und Mannschaftswagen) dieses kleinen Zuges. Die Anlage ist durch einen Zaun vor Vandalismus geschützt, weswegen das Fotografieren gewisse Herausforderungen mit sich brachte. Aber mit Tele-Objektiv und Fischeye war es dann doch möglich ein paar Bilder dieser schönen Anlage zu machen. Locomotive 1036 (Ex Rodder 73) Industrial monument narrow gauge coal railway Henschel factory number 26515 (with electrical part from Siemens-Schuckert) Year of construction 1948 Type EL 4, direct current (1200V), wheel arrangement Bo'Bo’ (narrow gauge 900 mm) Operational weight 75t Power 760kW Vmax: 40km/h This locomotive used to haul excavated material and raw coal in the Rhenish Brown Coalfield. It was saved from being scrapped and lovingly restored by the Förderkreis der Schmalspurkohlebahn Alt-Hürth e.V. and many volunteers and companies from the surrounding area. Today, the association still takes care of the locomotive and various wagons (overburden wagon, coal wagon, flat wagon and crew wagon) of this small train, which also belong to the industrial monument. The layout is protected from vandalism by a fence, so photography has presented certain challenges. But with a telephoto lens and a fish eye it was possible to take some pictures of this beautiful layout.
