Recovery of two steam engines - the true story |
| Description: |
SJ E2 948 (in background), built 1908 by Tillverkat av Nydqvist & Holm AB, was operated until 1957 at Ånge. 2006 she was transferred to Östersund Railway Museum and came to be stored 2011 in Litsnäset. Conclusion: The official story of IB16 travel was a good marketing gag. |

1800 4-6-4T at Steam Locomotive Museum Finland |
| Description: |
The Finnish VR Class Pr2, nicknamed "Henschel", was a passenger tank class ordered from the Henschel & Son locomotive workshops by the Estonia State Railways in the spring 1939 and completed in 1941. The outbreak of the Second World War prevented their delivery to Estonia, but at least a few of these engines did manage to operate in Latvia in 1942. These engines became superfluous, because the Germans were converting the Baltic tracks to standard gauge, and so Finland could purchase these four engines. They were classified Pr2 and numbered 1800–1803 after their arrival in December 1942. |
