Rushing Roland's by pesu

Binz - Germany, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern The 'Rasende Roland' motivates many railway enthusiasts to visit the island of Ruegen. Wikipedia says that it began operations in 1895 using a narrow gauge of 750 mm. It 'is still kept running regularly today along its stretch of 24.1 km of track with historic steam locomotives and coaches, some of which are almost a hundred years old. The engine whistle belongs even today to the usual background sounds of southeastern Rügen.'
