The meter-gauge Harz narrow-gauge railways (HSB) are, alongside the Rhaetian Railway (RhB), a very popular theme on the home garden railway. And so it really goes without saying that you should pay a regular visit to the large model. This is how friends of Saxon garden railway enthusiasts have been doing it for a few years now. They take a few days and travel together on the Harzquer, Selke and Brocken railways. They study the day-to-day operations, because there is always something to improve on the model. And our ESU sound specialist Andreas Schwoboda is also very much in his element here. The variety of types in the Harz has unfortunately and hopefully not forever decreased (Mallets, for example), but where else can you see several operational steam locomotives in one place? Modern traction with fish fingers and new railcars is also contemporary history that deserves to be recorded. And the six-axle diesel locomotives called Harz camels or cans, as is easy to see, are entirely justified by their name.

And so it really goes without saying that you regularly pay a visit to the great role model. That's how Saxon garden railroaders we've been friends with have been doing for at least a few years at least. They take a few days and travel and hike together on the Harzquer-, Selke- and Brockenrailway. Everyday operations are studied there, because there is always something to improve in the model. And our ESU sound specialist Andreas Schwoboda is also very much in his element here. Unfortunately, and hopefully not for ever (mallets, for example), the variety of types in the Harz Mountains has decreased, but where else can you experience several operational steam locomotives in one place? Modern traction with fish fingers and new railcars is also contemporary history that needs to be recorded. And the six-axle diesel locomotives, also known as Harzkamels or Kannen, do rightly bear their name, as is easy to see.
