DRG Class 05[edit]

DRG Class 05

Workers pose alongside steamlined German DRG Class 05 as it steams for the first time in March 1935. The class was the fastest steam locomotive to run in Continental Europe, and briefly held the Land speed record for steam traction. This locomotive is the only member of the class to be preserved.
