Welcome to "Phil's Loco Photos"

I made a quick return to Europe to continue using my "Deutschland Pass" by flying to Zürich and two days there. First day was getting photos at Rotkreuz and Benzenschwil, sadly the weather was quite poor. Same luck next day when I went to Gurtnellen on the Gotthard, sun came out but not when trains came past! I then moved on to Germany for lots 218 action on "Rheinland" day with a 218 shuttle service from Kaiserslautern - Pirmasens. Next day I did the Sundays bike train with the 111 on the "tram" line to Freudenstadt and then north to Münster (Westf). Two days around Husum, Niebüll and Dagebüll Mole and Kiel as "Keiler Woche" meant extra hauled trains. I then went south via Eisenach and Jena to München and over to Passau for the night, always struggling to find the sun for decent photos. Around St Pölten area I tried Kirchstetten, Groß Sierning and Prinzersdorf with some photos in sun. It was then over the Arlberg and up to Ulm for Sunday morning 218 to Immendingen and then the 181 from Stuttgart - Singen and to Offenburg. Sunny photos next day at Denzlingen and ten to Darmstadt for the last night. Few pictures at Groß Gerau before flying back home from Frankfurt/M
