Eine Woche ist der Fahrplanwechsel schon her. Nun verkehren WFL Dostos mit Beacon/IntEgro Eurorunnern zwischen Chemnitz und Leipzig auf dem RE6. Die DR-Reisezüge sind Geschichte!
Schon letzten Fahrplanwechsel war geplant neue Wasserstoffzüge einzusetzen. Diese verspäten sich aber mittlerweile schon um zwei Jahre. Erst Dezember 2025 gehen sie angeblich an den Start. Somit dieselt es noch ein bisschen auf der Strecke.
Das Wochenende des 14 und 15.12.2024 war ein richtiges hin und her. Was der RE6 für ein "Jufumagnet" ist wissen wir. Viele Infos machten den Kurs durch diverse Gruppen und Kanäle der Eisenbahn Community. Schlechtes Verhalten, besteigen einer Lok und eine angebliche Schlägerei.
Alles mal wieder zum Lachen :^) welch Glück, dass ich am Freitag meine letzten Fotos tätigte.
Niemals hätte ich gedacht dass ich mal einen Nachschuss hochlade, doch solange man sich nicht die Beschreibung durchliest, fällt das nicht mal auf 😀
Die Kühe haben natürlich nicht so mitgespielt wie man wollte aber es ist trotzdem gelungen. Wenigstens stehen sie nicht im Bild.

Sunny October Sunday at Ivinghoe Beacon.
•{ Yule Tidings . . .
She cradled the Yule candle, its golden flame flickering gently against the soft twilight. Snowflakes drifted from the heavens, melting as they brushed her leather armor. Her breath hung in the air, a pale mist, as she moved through the serene forest, each step muffled by the blanket of snow. The light of the candle illuminated her path, casting a warm glow on the crystalline trees. She paused at a clearing, holding the flame high, its brilliance a beacon of hope. Whispering an ancient blessing to the winter night, she smiled as the world seemed to breathe in harmony.

Twilight: Lighthouse of Cabo de São Vicente lit up
The Lighthouse of Cabo de São Vicente is a beacon/lighthouse located along the coastal peninsula of Sagres Point in the civil parish of Sagres, in the Portuguese municipality of the Vila do Bispo.
The lighthouse is situated on the tip of the Cape of St. Vincent, located 7 km (4.3 mi) from the western edge of the civil parish of Sagres, guarding one of the world's busiest shipping lanes. The traditional land's end of Europe, the extreme southwesternmost point on the continent, it was an essential landfall for sailors returning from Africa and the Americas. One of the most powerful lighthouses in Europe [...], its two 1,000 W lamps can be seen as far as 60 km (37 mi) away.
The 28-metre (92 ft) round cylindrical stone tower, with lantern and gallery, rises from a 2-/3-story keeper's complex. The beacon itself has operated with a hyper-radiant Fresnel lens (larger than 1st order) since 1908, with a focal plane of 86 metres (282 ft) and demonstrating one quick white flash every 5 seconds. The unpainted lighthouse tower includes red-painted lantern and the keeper's white-painted house with red roof. A fog horn has given two 5-second blasts every 30 seconds. Google
