On 2 May 2015, we said goodbye to our diesel locomotive 118 748 from active service because its licence expired the following week due to the expiry of the inspection periods. For this reason, we organised a photo special, first from Wittenberge to Karow, then to Putlitz and then back to Wittenberge. The picture was taken at Ganzlin.

On the occasion of our Autumn Steam 2014 event, several diesel locomotives of different classes also gathered in the historic locomotive shed in Wittenberge. The picture shows, from left to right, our diesel locomotive 118 692, MEG class 119 locomotive 301, diesel locomotive 204 774 (now our property) and an MEG class 218 diesel locomotive.

After our museum opened, word quickly spread among locomotive operators that Wittenberge once again had the necessary infrastructure to supply steam locomotives. The express locomotive 03 2155 visited us on 18 August 2013. The noble racer belongs to the WFL company and is still available for steam specials today.

13 October 2012 was certainly one of the most important days in the history of our association. We transferred some of our large steam locomotives from Salzwedel via Stendal to Wittenberge. The following picture shows the train consisting of some of our class 50 steam locomotives, with the wagons of the so-called disaster train in between, which provided the necessary braking effect for the train. The locomotive was 221 106 of the Potsdam railway company, which has since been sold.
