Saxonia_Adler.jpg (79396 bytes)

Dampflokfest Dresden, 30 April 2000 Reproductions of Germany's first steam locomotives, SAXONIA (J. A. Schubert 1839, Leipzig - Dresden) and ADLER (G. Stephenson 1935, Nürnberg - Fürth). The Saxonia is a lot bigger as it was intended to haul "express" trains over a relatively long line. Buffers and couplers are incompatible, these were only standardized a lot later.
