Ereğli TCDD | 1989

The loco crew makes ready at Armutcuk on the Ereğli minerals railway with a train of loaded coal hoppers worked by '45001' class nr 45017.

Based on the Prussian G8/2 design 45017 is Tubize (Belgium) 2075/28, the first of eight with the majority coming from Nohab.

The Black Sea minerals line at Ereğli was unconnected to the TCDD network, later becoming abandoned with eventual disposal of the last pair of locos 45001/17 stationed there.

35mm / Ilford FP4.

15th May 1989
