German Railways 6th Edition Part 2- Private Operators, Museums and Museum Lines

A fully revised, updated and expanded guide to the rolling stock of private train operators in Germany. Much has happened in the seven years since the last edition of this book was published and the format of the book has been revised to reflect the changing scene in Germany and to make the book easier to use. The advent of open-access operators has led to a more interesting railway scene. New passenger operators now provide many local services over specific routes and networks, usually under contract to local authorities. In contrast a multitude of new freight operators can be seen all over the German railway network and beyond, using a broad cross-section of modern and heritage locomotives. The book also includes a substantial appendix of Vehicle Keeper Markings and abbreviations, and a further appendix of locomotive and rolling stock builders.
