Looking at the TV tower in the background,this was recorded in the Cologne area.

Apparently the pantograph of the loco was not lowered before moving the turntable,causing a shortcircuit between the various overhead lines.

Looks like it was a bit exciting, with a smoking piece landing on the track in front of the loco from which the video was shot. I presume the horn is the cameraman attempting to warn the other loco the pantograph is still up.
