Memories

Veilbronn Oberfranken 









Amongst the photo collection this series of images has a special significance, the location was Veilbronn, a halt just one stop onward from the ‘hiring’ in Unterleinleiter, that was a temporary home to the Hale tribe. The Leinleitertalbahn to Heilingenstadt from Ebermannstadt was completed in 1915 before the line to Behringersmuhle, it closed in 1965. 

I recently acquired a Sachsenmodelle version of the railbus……it has no matching trailer but I do have one of the Vb140 ‘square’ version from Trix in DB dark red which do nicely. The railbus is Vt135 065 Hydronalium both of which spent their last years on the branchlines around Bamberg.

The mother and boy are essential for Pottendorf, though I would have preferred not to wear a cardigan.
