The only thing spoiling this "historical scene" is the colour of the locomotive! DBAG diesel locomotive class 216, non-rebuilt "Silberlinge" coaches and mechanical signalling in the station of Gießen on September 6th, 1998. The train in the picture is the local train for the Vogelsbergbahn Gießen-Fulda.
