TCDD Halkali: Fireman inspecting his engine, TCDD 56522, one of TCDD's 53 ex-Kriegsloks at the Halkali Locomotive Depot. Summer, 1975. Note the Floridsdorf rigid frame tender. Another 56.5 with the same type of tender peers out of the Depot stall.

Halkali is at the western edge of Istanbul where trains swapped steam lokomotives for electric lokos until the late 70's.
