99.6001 prepared to enter the shed at Gernrode at the end of the day on Saturday 18 February 2017.
This little 2-6-2 tank is the favourite loco for working services on the Selketalbahn and is often the only operational steam loco on the line. It worked all the loco hauled service trains while we were there and seems to be a capable and well regarded machine. Just as well as it has to cover almost 200km every day, half as far again as the most demanding of the regular 2-10-2T duties.
