A 90×60 canvas of exactly this machine is hanging on my wall as a trophy. In mid-August I was able to photograph him near Nordhausen and sometimes ride a few trains with him. Just tremendous, nice that you got him in front of the lens. Where and when was he with you?
I just saw a video of a deer that lost its back to one of these apparently. It was still walking around alive even though its entire insides were exposed. Brutal stuff.
