Delivery through the rain

Another batch of old coaches of Swedish national railways were refited by VR Fleetcare in Pieksämäki. These new Bistro coaches are wearing a new SJ livery and are wearing new interiors featuring also a new Bistro compartment. Return trip back to Sweden has commenced and firts the coaches are hauled to Oulu and then to the border station of Haaparanda in Sweden where the coaches will get back their original bogies for the European rail guage of 1435 mm that are transported on the two flatbed wagons in the tail end of the train. The class Sr1 number 3046 and even a class Dv12 number 2541 are pulling the coaches through the rainy Finnish scenes. The journey however, its just started, but Kuopio is left behind already as the mighty Kallansillat railway bridges have been crossed, but delivery through the rain continues!
