Die Selketalbahn bei Maegdesprung. The train is travelling downhill towards Gernrode. At this point, the railway runs alongside the road. I think that this section did not allow suffiient clearance for Rollbock wagons for Silberhuette to come up from Gernrode and thus coal had to come up from Nordhausen to Stiege and be turned in the special loop there for transfer to the Selketalbahn.
