Night with a red star in Červená Skala

The #556-036 carries its iconic communist red star. Of course, it is a preserved engine kept in original condition. It is a type 2-10-0 as per the Anglo-Saxon categorization of steam engines, or 1-E in Germany and central Europe, or 150 in France. It is a modern engine, built in 1952 by Skoda Plzen, a large series of 510 units. See here: sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parn%C3%BD_ru%C5%A1e%C5%88_556.0

In the evening of February 24, 2024, the 556-036 with a freight train was staying still in the Červená Skala station. It was the star of a night photo session organized by a super team of German railfans and Slovakian railroaders, on a steam tour funded by several dozen railfans from many countries.
