Steam in Bosnia 2019

[@jayblack6004]

The Deutsche Reichsbahn built these in the middle of the war using simpler construction techniques and fewer precious metals as a stripped-down variant of the Class 50 freight locomotive in common use at the time. Even the Germans must be surprised that their service has lasted into this century

In Austria, they were used until 1976. My father was working on such machines for a little time at the end of the 60's.

Its projected to be 10 years working but look at it now, still going strong even after the WW2

[@JamesSmith-mv9fp]

The worlds most prolific steam locomotive class, the German "Kreigslok" (DR Class 52) with around 21,000 built across numerous countries during WW2. So obviously quite a number are also preserved in a number of countries, in addition to Germany. I drove one at Stassfurt (steam centre), an old DR Roundhouse, with a mile or so of running line, just to the East of the Harz mountains in the old East German zone. The "official driver" was a Dutch Railways driver, who spoke English, but the Fireman was a young German who declared his loco was being invaded by the Allies, im stark Deutsch (in strong German) ! Of course Stassfurt is only a 25 minute drive east, of the famous Harz Mountain Railway (HSB) and its 100km network of steam hauled routes, subsidized by the EU as an official public transport network. The HSB use a fleet of 66tonne 2-10-2T on metre gauge, along with a couple of now extremely rare 0-4-0+0-4-0T Mallet tank locos, in all year round service. One of their lines climbs to the 4,002ft summit (by normal adhesion) of the famous Brocken Mountain. Of course the Harz mountains are probably more famous for the infamous Valpurgis Nacht (Night of the witches) every 31st of April. When for hundreds of years it has been the tradition for all the most beautiful girls in EVERY town and village to run naked through the streets at midnight. This of course attracts around a Million tourists to the area on this day every year ! Re-enactment of the classic play "Faust" on the Brocken mountain top on this day, complete with all the debauchery included (banned in Britain) allows the HSB to operate into the early hours, as its the only way to reach the summit, unless you want to be eaten by mountain lions & wild boar !!!!!

In Sweden the last steam locomotives came out of their mobilization shed in 2008 but the last mainline use of steam had been in 1972 and the last industrial use of steam engines had been in 1978. The best steam locomotives had been kept in mobilisation sheds to be mobilized in case of a war in Europe until 1992.

[@Kaspertog]

I do not think you have to worry about the climate being a big factor down there, because the coal mined goes directly to the coal power plant in Tuzla as their only energy source and the economy is so bad that it is cheaper to use the steam locomotives than to replace them with diesel :-)

There should still be active driving with steam in the mines around Tuzla and the two railway experience companies Tanago and FarRail Tours are planning an excursion there in 2022. The steam locomotives are only used for shunting in the mines. And about steam in China I am unsure but i believe that the last run of steam in the Sandaoling mine was ending at the end of 2019.

[@Kaspertog]

Thanks for you comment :-) About the Bosnia Steam locomotives are there still in use in 2024 but only ad the coal mines in Dubrave, Šikulje, Banovići where there also have the narrow gauge network. The big former Germans build steam locomotives can only been seen at the coal mines in Dubrave and Šikulje but there only run whit them a few times each day inside the area. They are not used on the main railways anymore. The depot of the steam locomotives are in Bukinje, close to Tuzla, where is normaly possible to buy acsses to from the workshop manager. But if you what to have the full experience then I would recommend going on one of the photo excursions there. FarRail Tours have one in October (18.10.2024 - 23.10.2024) It was on a photo excursion I went on in 2019 and can only recommend it. Since the yield if you go down there yourself is quite small.
