This place was very quite, with no locos in sight. The big circular building at the end of the line is still standing, but a lot of other building there have gone, and there were no wagons on any of the track.
Siemens AG, Verkehrstechnik Prüfcenter Wegberg-Wildenrath, Wegberg-Wildenrath
The old RAF base has now become a railway test centre for Siemens, with a large electrified track circuit. I did not get inside the main area, as they were having a ‘City Sprinter Roll-Out’, to show their new wonder to the press. However I was able to see one of their new silver ICE units making runs round the out track.
Boral Keramik Wand und Boden, Mennrather Straße, Mönchengladbach-Rheindahlen
The place seemed closed and all the 600mm gauge track has been lifted. They was no sign of the two diesels that were said to be stored here. These both went to Feld- und Werksbahnmuseum, Oekoven in May 1999.
Walzwerk Euskirchen (WEG), Euskirchen-Euenheim
The works has closed and was being redeveloped. The rail connection to the DB has recently been lifted.

The works has been completely demolished and a new Aldi store built on the site. It is still possible to see a bit of track at the back of the site, where it used to connect with the DB.
Procter & Gamble GmbH, Euskirchen-Wüschheim
There is still rail traffic here. However they had closed for the day, and if there is a loco, then it was locked inside the main building.

The locos that was reported at Isar-Amper-Werke, Kraftwerk Höllriegelskreuth here may belong to Peroxyid Chemie GmbH, who have a works by the Bahnhof, with a rail connection. However I could not see if there are still any locos here. There is an Isar-Amper power station here, but it is hydro-electric station, at a much lower level, and appears never to have had a rail connection. It is possible that the locos worked at another Isar-Amper station, which has now been demolished, and replaced by the Peroxyid Chemie works.

Stora Enso Baienfurt GmbH, Baienfurt
The company was started in 1872 as Papierfabrik Baienfurt AG. It was taken over by Feldmühle AG in 1968 and Stora Carton Board GmbH in 1990. On January 1st 1999 it became Stora Enso. The steam loco had just come back from a major overhaul at Lok Service Burkhardt in Hinwil, Switzerland and looked very nice. It was due to work during the Baienfurt Stadtfest on 27th/28th June, which it does each year.

This firm still have a rail connection, but no loco.
Albbrück
The paper works is now called Albbrück Papier and seems to be a subsidiary of MD Papier, as their sign is also at the main gate. I could not see if they still have locos, although there is still rail traffic.
H.C.Starck GmbH & Co.KG, Niederlassung Laufenburg, Werk Rhina, Laufenburg
The company has two works on the west side of Laufenburg, but only Rhina now has any locos. The line runs from the DB, across the main road, and up a side road to the works. There is very little activity at this works after 2.30, so visits should be made in the morning.

This big timber yard is very easy to get into, as there are no fences. A man from the office caught me, but the only thing he wanted me to tell him was who told me that there were locos here - obviously they don’t like publicity!

Wehrle-Werk AG, Bismarck Straße, Emmendingen
There is a line to the DB that runs through the houses and streets, and halfway along the line there is a small depot, which is also used by the Eisenbahnfreunde Breisgau to store their loco. The track was very overgrown with weeds and it looks as if the company don’t use the line very much, although they did make a run down to the depot to get something. I think they mostly use the railway internally, to take stuff from the main works to a yard on the other side of the road. They only have about 3 wagons, which are really just underframes with no bodies. The loco was originally red, but has never been repainted and the colour has now faded to pink.
