A full day at the east end of the Mosel Valley around Winningen and Kobern-Gondorf. The weather forecast was fairly good but the cloud stayed stubbornly in place, except around Winningen where there were a few sunny breaks allowing a handful of reasonable phots during the afternoon.

The IC trains were solidly 181 worked, as expected, with blue/beige 181.211 putting in an appearance alongside its red classmates. Most RE trains were 143 worked with the loco invariably at the west end of the formation. The exception was RE12624 which was a 425 unit. 425s and 426s worked most of the RB trains but 143.114 appeared on several services and an another (unidentified) 143 worked another RB westwards in the early afternoon. One unexpected passenger was a westbound special worked by Centralbahn 10019, an ex-SBB Re4/4i.

Freight traffic was fairly heavy with 17 trains seen in 8 hours. The variety of traction was surprising with DB classes 140, 152, 155, 185 and 189 joined by an HGK 185, several Fret SNCF BB37000s, two RTS 2016 diesels, a CFL Cargo 4000 and a Rurtalbahn Class 66.
