Steam from the cooling tower of a nuclear power plant and a steam locomotive. The express steam locomotive 241 A 65 returns from a test run from Laufenburg to Full AG and passes the Leibstadt nuclear power plant, built in 1984 with an output of 1285 MW. The natural draft wet cooling tower is 144 meters high. After several years of extensive repairs and revisions, the former French 4-8-2 express locomotive 241 A 65 of the Dampflok Depot Full (DDF) association successfully completed its acceptance run today. The four-cylinder compound "Mountain" express train locomotive was delivered to ETAT in 1931 by Cie de Fives in Lille/France as 241-001 and was the largest and most powerful steam locomotive in Europe at the time with a total service weight of 200 tons and a maximum output of around 3500 hp. It was taken out of service by the SNCF in 1965 and bought a few years later by the Swiss Armin Glaser and brought to Switzerland. It was initially only restored externally and was only brought into working order in Meiningen/Germany in 1996. On September 1, 1997, the 241 A 65 was put back under steam for the first time in 32 years and has been licensed for Germany and Switzerland ever since. Since September 2008, the locomotive has been stationed in Full-Reuenthal and is operated by the Full Steam Locomotive Depot Association (DDF).
