Steam-hauled School Run

On the damp and cold Friday 17th January 2014, the 6.07am Wolsztyn to Leszno service rolls into Włoszakowice. It's an early start for these passengers, mainly students, and the guard opens the forward door of the leading coach before the train comes to a stand. The fireman will be busy topping up the firebox of 'Ol49' Class 2-6-2 No.49-59 for the final few miles on to Leszno, where it will be watered and turned before its return to Wolsztyn later that morning.
