At the former train station in Oberviechtach there is a historical technology delicacy - not just for railway enthusiasts. One of the oldest Hanomag locomotives still preserved in the world has found its well-deserved resting place in an architecturally extremely successful “glass locomotive shed”. Under number 3427 the B-coupler, i.e. two axes, built in the Hanomag factories in 1899. Its design corresponds to the first Bockerln that have been in service on the Nabburg-Oberviechtach-Schönsee railway line since 1904. oberviechtach.de/index.php?article_id=371
