    This year marks the 30th anniversary of the annual steam parade in Wolsztyn, Poland. This roundhouse and town of course is known as the last domain of standard gauge 'Plandampf' in Europe.

    For the big anniversary parade on Saturday May 2nd no less than 10 tank engines and tender locomotives participated, with the home fleet of 2-8-2 flagship Pt47-65 and the 0-6-0 industrial tank TKh.

    Then there were 2 guest locos from Belgium, one from Luxembourg, four from Dolni Lipka in the Czech Republic plus 35 1097 on a day-trip from Cottbus, Germany.

    Here is footage from the parade and also the special excursion trains from Wolsztyn to Powodowo, which used two of the Benelux guest engines.
