 The SDG uses steam engines of the DR Class 99.77-79, serial "099 772", "099 773", "099 785", "099 786" and "099 794".There are many nice photo opportunities along the railway.Notable are the trains passing each other in "Neudorf", the valley-bound train entering the "Kretscham-Rothensehma" station, the train making its way through "Hammerunterwiesenthal" with the church as backdrop, the ride through the Pöhlbach valley, and the train on the viaduct shortly before entering Oberwiesenthal.
