The Rügensche BäderBahn
The Rügensche BäderBahn is a narrow gauge railway (750 mm) started in 1895 that these days connects the attractive Putbus station with the pleasant seaside resorts of Lauterbach Mole, Binz, Sellin, Baabe und Göhren on the island of Rügen on the Baltic Sea in northeastern Germany. Nicknamed the “Rasender Roland” (Raging Roland), this idyllic stretch of track has since 2008 been operated by the Pressnitztalbahn.
In this video taken in 2018, we arrive in Putbus on a modern local feeder train from the main line station of Bergen auf Rügen. In Putbus we see engines shunting and taking on coal. From there we’ll travel the short distance south to Lauterbach Mole on a train topped and tailed by two steam engines, no. 99 4632-8 which is a Lenz Typ M (0-8-0T) from 1914, and no. 99 1782-4 which is a type 1'E1'-h2t (2-10-2T) from 1953.
After that it’s off to the end station of Göhren 18 km away to the east. On the way back we round off the video by showing trains crossing paths at Binz. Our last view of a steam loco is no. 99 4011-5 which is a type D h2t (2-8-0T) engine built in 1931-36.

Salut my friend super train super video subscribe subscribe
Cute croc whistle :D
Wish I was born into Europe...
Ahh I miss 2014
If I become a film maker, I’m gonna make a horror movie with one of those in it
Which is better The brown crocodile Or The green crocodile
When I was a kid I had Marklin trains. This was one of the locomotives I always wanted.
did you ever get it?
@@koiyujo1543 sadly, no.
Same with me. Looking back at the price it was 1/5 of a monthly salary... at the end of the seventies.
So crisp and clean, they look like models.
Nobly trains this video was soothing
Lovely
Hopefully, it's better than the one in Branson
La composizione nel video e', ovviamente, un falso.storico. le "coccodrillo", nelle tre versioni, erano state costruite per il traino di soli treni merci. La presentazione di treni del genere mi pare di gusto perlomeno discutibile...
But having passengers riding in freight wagons, on a special commemorative trip would be ridiculous. Be generous.
Lion mess with crocodile so croc into a train and kill lion
What country is this please?
this is telemark in norway
@@NorthernOsprey Thank You. I went back and watched the videos again. Excellent!
beautifull landscape mountains love the train trip
german made diesel locomotive
No-it is a Swiss built ELECTRIC Lokomotive
Switzerland isn't the only country to have double-nosed electric locomotives. It turns out the United States had a bunch of them too, with one of them being the GG1 for the Pennsylvania Railroad and eventually the Northeast Corridor.
those still run, ours don't.
What was the other one that got botched during retrofit?
When on holiday with my parents in 1972, a Crocodile hauled our train from Interlaken West to Speiz.
nice bell sound
Nice video dear.. Love 💞 from India
Too bad we can't see the boilers with the flames!
I kinda like the tank engine its cute
mashinky sent me here
100?! Electric motive power is older than I thought...
Electric locomotives have been around since the 19th century.
Funny an engine of this age and caliber and yes with Jack shafts still running as opposed to some of the beautiful electric motors that were built here in America that are either gone or just decaying....
Helps that THESE engines still have a place to run. The old Milwaukee Road electrics are basically homeless now because their lines were either ripped-up or un-electrified. Judging from the blower noise heard occasionally, they likely also have air-cooled electrical components - no toxic chemicals to worry about in the case of the GG1's.
Decaying... along with the rest of the country. FJB. I'd be outta here in a second to Switzerland.
Rail fan at 2:07 definitely hates the new age locomotive spoiling his view.
It's wonderful to see an old lady still active in service. I have the Greatest respect for that☺️👍❤️ I just wish they could have preserved RMS Olympic
magnifique machine
Favorite lok of all time!
Felicidades a los aficionados al ferrocarril suizo por disfrutar de estos vehículos tan maravillosos
When will this celebration happen next?

I have never seen
I love this sound
I live swiss railway. Lovely capture
Like the sound of the Air Whistle. C'mon all you Model Railroad Manufacturers, how about adding one of these to your range.
I love trans!
For anyone wanting more info on these fascinating vehicles and their designer, the linked pdf article is a good source. On p.3 it shows a power bogie with its original McKeen 200 HP engine, 2-speed gearbox and chain drive in-situ. utahrails.net/pdf/Kratville_McKeen.pdf If you're wondering what a similarly massive and low-revving early 20th-century spark-ignition engine might sound like, here's a Hall-Scott railcar engine in the Coolspring Power Museum: ua-cam.com/video/Xy6V0FCmw0s/v-deo.html
I normally am not fond of modern locomotives because of how boring they are to look at, but I do think that the crocodile is actually a modern locomotive.
1910-1920-ish when the crocodile was built
@@Sperel123 I know that yes, but compared to steam locomotives, the crocodile is more modern compared them. It's also an electric locomotive, which is what most modern trains are powered by. What I'm trying to say is that the crocodile loco is far ahead of its time.
Oh, ok, thank you for your answer
@@carterjames8829 Nah, the electric locomotive was invented in 1875.
@@Bacony_Cakes Yes I know when it was invented, but there are several electrics that were NOT invented until recently, like the AEM-7 or the ACS-64. Both of them are good, but are so underwhelming compared to the crocodile.
Good luck
What’s the point in riding it when it doesn’t run any faster than anyone can walk?
I wonder what it had for power when it was built
An engine of William McKeen's own design.
I was lucky enough to ride this beautiful car a few years back. One day I hope it will be reunited with the last remaining McKeen Trailer Car (currently unrestored at the Illinois Railway Museum). The trailer car is much shorter and looks like two rear ends of this car put together.
Quelle beauté, quel amour des choses bien faites et durables. Merci pour la présentation.
