Dahn Süd

AVG Railcar VT452 approaching Dahn Süd with a service from Bundenthal-Rumbach, the terminus of the Wieslauterbahn, to Karlsruhe Hauptbahnhof. The railcar was built by Maschinenfabrik Esslingen in 1958 for the Deutsche Eisenbahn-Betriebs-Gesellschaft (DEBG). The AVG (Albtal Verkehrs Gesellschaft - a railway company owned by the city of Karlsruhe) acquired it in 1994 along with the Kraichtal and Katzbachtal lines (Ubstadt to Menzingen and Bruchsal to Odenheim respectively). It remained in regular service until 2000 and was restored to its original condition in 2009/10. [With thanks to Bill Jamieson for loco information.]
