"Germany's first rail train on steam power 1835", said the inscription on the memorial stone at the festive inauguration of the locomotive "Adelaar/Eagle" on 7-December-1835. This started one of the most exciting chapters from the exciting history of the railways.With the more than 7 meters long and 40 km/h fast "Adelaar/Eagle" the first step was taken in the era of high speed.
