Filling-up steam locomotive - a photo on Flickriver

            Filling-up steam locomotive 52 8060-7 of the Museumrailway S.T.A.R. with water at the water tower from station Stadskanaal in the Netherlands. 
Since 1995 the Museumrailway S.T.A.R. (Stichting Stadskanaal Rail) exploits the railwayline between Veendam, Stadskanaal en Musselkanaal with historical steamtrains. The 26 km long track follows the border between the provinces of Groningen and Drenthe in the northeast of the Netherlands.
The Deutsche Reichsbahn's Class 52 was a German steam locomotive built in large numbers during the Second World War. With over 7,000 locomotives, built across Europe, it was the most produced type of the so-called Kriegslokomotiven or Kriegsloks (war locomotives). 6,000+ locomotives passed into Russian ownership after the Second World War. Other operators of the type included Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Norway and Turkey. The Deutsche Reichsbahn (DRB) in East Germany (DDR) had 200 machines, including 52 8060-7,  reconstructed to the new DRB Class 52.80.

Stoomlocomotief 52 8060-7 van museumspoorlijn S.T.A.R. wordt gevuld met water bij de watertoren van station Stadskanaal.
Museumspoorlijn S.T.A.R. (Stichting Stadskanaal Rail) rijdt sinds 1994 met historische stoomtreinen en dieseltreinen tussen Veendam, Stadskanaal en Musselkanaal. De 26 km lange spoorlijn loopt langs de provinciegrens tussen Groningen en Drenthe.
Stoomlocomotief 52 8060-7 uit 1943 is een van de ruim 7.000 locomotieven uit de Deutsche Reichsbahn's Class 52 die tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog zijn gebouwd om oorlogsmaterieel te verplaatsen. Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog zijn ruim 6.000 locs door Rusland als oorlogsbuit in gebruik genomen. 
De overige 1.000 locomotieven zijn door Polen, Roemenië, Bulgarije, Noorwegen, Turkije, en de DDR in gebruik genomen.
De 52 8060-7 op de foto is in van de circa 200 locomotieven uit de DDR die daar jarenlang in de DRB Class 52.80 hebben gereden.
