Tato obycejna mestska mikroska vas zavede k zeleznicnimu pomnicku ve stanici Litovel predmesti. Je na nem mala motorova masinka, kterou jsme jako mali moc radi navstevovali (prochazky vzdy smerovaly ke splavu nebo prave sem). To byla tehdy jeste modra, vsak se muzete podivat na dochovane fotografie. Vsimnete si na nich take nekterych dnes jiz chybejicich casti stroje. Nase prochazky ale nejsou tim, kvuli cemu vas sem nyni zveme. Jde totiz predevsim o masinku samotnou, v Cesku a mozna i na svete unikatni. Pochazi z doby, kdy motorova trakce v nasich zemich teprve zacinala a po tratich se prohanely lokomotivy parni. A aby to bylo jeste zajimavejsi, nikde se nam nepodarilo najit zadne zminky o dalsich strojich se stejnou kapotazi ani jejich fotky. Citlive oko si muze vsimnout jiste podobnosti s lokomotivami teze rady jako je MD2, jina MD2, nebo tato MD2b, ovsem ve vsech pripadech tu jde o rozchod 600 mm.
EN: This easy cache brings you to a engine memorial in the train station Litovel predmesti. There is a small diesel locomotive, which we used to visit in our childhood. In those days it was blue, as you can see in the picture.
Lokomotiva MD2 (LD2) byla vyrobena roku 1942 firmou Orenstein & Koppel Nordhausen. Hned 27. brezna 1942 byla predana do provozu pobocce Orenstein & Koppel v Praze. Dalsi zminka o lokomotive pochazi z rudnych dolu Jesenik, pote byla provozovana ve vapence Vitosov a dostala se i do Agrochemického podniku v Litovli, kde byla provozovana na mistni vlecce. Zde take dojezdila a nekdy v letech 1983-1984 udajne jeste vlastni silou dojela na nedaleke nadrazi Litovel predmesti, kde ji umistili na pomnik. V roce 1999 pak byla prevezena na vlecku SaZ Sazava, aby se o tri roky pozdeji dostala zpet na pomnik do zst. Litovel predmesti. Roku 2006 byla lokomotiva zapujcena Zeleznicnimu a parnimu spolku Troubelice, ktery okamzite provedl rekonstrukci nateru.
