Free operated freight services let us see locomotives from all over Europe wherever we travel. Here we can see even some CFL (Louxembourg) locomotives

Arriving to Dusseldorf, a great variety of conmuter stock visible

Indeed. Our thoughts go to all those who lost loved ones. I wish accidents like these never happen, but ...somehow they do.
