Hi guys,
last weekend we had a nice meeting at our club track at Oberusel...near Frankfurt. During the meeting we put the N&W Sisters together on tracks. We were driving a doubelheader for 2 hours it was a lot of fun to push or to pull the other locomotive around the track. At the best photolight we made some pictures, some footage about it will follow.
