Railbus replacement service

One of my favorite catches of the 2022 summer vacations at my family up north.

 

SM42-349, the last of all SM/SU42 locomotives in PolRegio's fleet in the old Przewozy Regionalne's livery, was deployed for around 3 days in August to run one pair of trains on the Ostbahn between Chojnice and Tczew instead of a Pesa Link, which broke down. Here the evening train can be seen leaving Czersk on the way back to Chojnice, which once used to be called Konitz.

 

This required me to wake up at 4am to take a train from the tricity to the Ostbahn, spend a whole day there and return back home around 1am the next day, nevertheless I find that it was worth every drop of tear and sweat :).
