Track measuring car 63 80 99-94 002-2 at the rear end of measuring train 95141, seen at Langerwehe (on Cologne-Aachen) after arrival from Cologne on 19 May 2004. The other car is 63 80 99-94 003-0, and the loco is 750 003-6. This car has a cab, allowing the train to be reversed without shunting, which would be impossible on some lines. However in this case the loco ran around the train before it returned to Cologne as 95142. Originally it was intended to do this here, but later the train was ordered to continue westwards before reversing. So it was probably shunted in Eschweiler or Stolberg before it returned, running through Langerwehe without a stop.
