While the small steam engine of the Department of Rail Vehicles and Materials-Handling Technology (Institut für Schienenfahrzeuge und Fördertechnik) of the Aachen University of Technology (RWTH) makes a short trip on the area of the department on 28 May 2003, it passes the olf Köf II which is parked next to a car with an advertising container. Between them in the background, you can see 145-CL 004 of rail4chem which is waiting with DFG 46103 (Antwerpen-BASF - Ludwigshafen-BASF) in the station Aachen West.

Small steam engine of the Department of Rail Vehicles and Materials-Handling (Institut für Schienenfahrzeuge und Fördertechnik) of the Aachen University of Technology (RWTH). Built in 1921 by Krauss, it is preserved and sometimes even used for work at the University. It was photographed standing in front of the hall (next to the station Aachen West) on 25 January 2002.

The cab of the small steam engine of the Department of Rail Vehicles and Materials-Handling Technology (Institut für Schienenfahrzeuge und Fördertechnik) of the Aachen University of Technology (RWTH), seen on 28 May 2003. At the bottom a part of the boiler is visible. The big gauge with the two pointers shows the main air pipe pressure (black) and the main reservoir pressure (red). On the right is a gauge for the brake cylinder pressure and on the left is one for the boiler pressure.

steam_rwth5.jpg (78729 bytes)

Small steam engine of the Department of Rail Vehicles and Materials-Handling (Institut für Schienenfahrzeuge und Fördertechnik) of the Aachen University of Technology (RWTH) seen on 25 January 2002. The builder's plate states that the loco was built in 1921 by Krauss at Munich as No. 7899. I guess that the Chemical Factory Uetikon is where it was used. 770 kg of coal and 3.2 cubic meters of water can be stored.
