    After 8 years being stuck in the Czech Republic, 01 1102 and the various carriages (about 14 vehicles I think) have moved and are heading back to Germany. Most of the rolling stock is heading to Halberstadt, with the blue streamlined pacific to Klostermansfeld for overhaul.

    The loco and stock moved to Česká Velenice, to the Velenické works, in 2013 for overhaul. Unfortunately the works went bust the following year and the loco and stock have been stuck inside ever since. Seems that even though they weren't owned by the works, Czech laws meant that they were included in the bankruptcy, so were essentially siezed.

    Would very much like to see a streamlined 01.10 in action. Hopefully I'll get my chance in the not too distant future.
