Maerklin made this as an Insider model #39050 in 2007. 2. The engine is hauling the then new 26.4 metre passenger rolling stock. 3. Note in the background how many flat-roofed covered goods wagons are still in use on the railways at this time. 4. The photo is taken from within the framework of the famous overhead railway in Wuppertal. I acknowledge the input of David Ingram Seal from the Railways of Germany forum. Details: 05 003 (Bw Hamm), on the F 16 "Sachsenroß" (Hannover - Wuppertal Elberfeld - Köln), with the new 26.4m rolling stock.

The signal-tower, the train has just passed, was named "Rittershausen West". A picture from the other direction (and 20 years later) can be found here: https://posten17.de/sond...rtal-oberbarmen-07-1973/ Regards Markus

The loco is a bit longer than each of the coaches it hauls. I have three blue F train coaches from Piko, including a semi-dining coach. Now I know I have another suitable loco to haul that train.

One can already tell from the year 1951 that these are different coaches than those on the picture (shorter pre-war coaches). In this case the loco is much longer than the coaches. Those F trains of the '50s were short and there were many types of coaches, so you can have several trains of different types.
