Georg, thanks for the background on these one meter gauge steam locomotives. I love that they represent 5 separate railways with their historical info. The most amazing part of this photo is that each of these "Steamers" seem to sport headlights & ditch lights. I haven't ever noticed ditch lights on Steam locos until in this photo. Thanks for the great catch.

Hi Steve
3 Headlights are common in Switzerland since the old Steam days. I don't know when it became mandatory though. I think it was to be able to tell the difference between rail and road vehicles.
