Diesel loco 6.306.1 of the Dürener Kreisbahn (DKB) seen at Düren on 7 October 2003, after a serious shunting accident in the previous night. The train consisting of 6.305.1 (which was damaged less), 6.306.1 and four coal cars overran a buffer stop and derailed. At this time 6.305.1 and three of the cars are already removed, the fourth car is about to be lifted away. The accident also destroyed some signal cables, leading to delayed operation on the Cologne-Aachen line in the following days. Digital photo by Christoph Schmitz

Diesel loco 6.306.1 of the Dürener Kreisbahn (DKB) seen at Düren on 7 October 2003, after a serious shunting accident in the previous night. The train consisting of 6.305.1 (which was damaged less), 6.306.1 and four coal cars overran a buffer stop and derailed. The last coal car (which was indeed the first one in the train, next to the locos) is just lifted away. Some of the coal, which was intended for a paper factory in Lendersdorf, fell out and can be seen next to the loco. Digital photo by Christoph Schmitz

Diesel loco 6.306.1 of the Dürener Kreisbahn (DKB) seen at Düren on 7 October 2003, after a serious shunting accident in the previous night. The train consisting of 6.305.1 (which was damaged less), 6.306.1 and four coal cars overran a buffer stop and derailed. Finally the loco is lifted away and put onto a truck to bring it somewhere where it will be repaired or scrapped (I hope the first will become true). Digital photo by Christoph Schmitz
