Thunder in the gorge

On my second railfan day in Turkey I woke up with the intentions of getting some hotel breakfast before hitting the road. However, no sooner than I stepped out of the room to put the bags in the car did I hear the unmistakable unturbocharged roar of a pair of DE22s. Well, I guess I am not having breakfast....

Quickly drop the roomkeys and off I went towards Karabük.

Here at Bolkus I managed to find an open view to the Filyos Gorge in time to capture DE22 068 + 069 roaring upgrade towards Karabük.

 

A video of this scene and many others from my trip can be found here
