I did promise/threaten to return to the Killisberg Parkeisenbahn on a steam day and inflict more pictures on you. I've even got some videos as well, Just scroll down a bit for those...
Top: 'Classic' view: Train passing the fountains by the main entrance. Above Springerle, one of two locomotives built by Kraus-Maffei of Munich and delivered on 30th of May 1950, in the sunshine at the station.
Low shot. The brolley is to keep the sun off the crew, but it makes a mess of photography. 
Close up of the smokebox 
Makers plate: Apparently three locomotives were built, one was sent as a gift to Delhi in India, and the other two are still in Stuttgart.
"Weight: 6,5t" "Weight in service: 8,6t" "Coal: 0,3t" "Water: 1,0m3" "Tested: 4.03" "Brakes: 4.03"
Out and about: on the downhill section approaching the station again 
Motion close up, in B+W in an attempt to look artsy. And a couple of videos of 'Springerle' powering up the hill at the top of the park. Notice the wheelslip in the second shot as she negotiates a sharp curve at the top of the hill...
Full speed ahead: On the crossing:
