Steam loco?

A quick throwback to summertime and the famous railway line leading to Hel.

 

In not very suitable lighting conditions, SU42-521 leads a delayed Regio train from Gdynia Główna to Hel. The smokescreen created by the locomotive could be seen for kilometers and the entire train was barely able to make it up the hill located just after the stop in Swarzewo. The defect (broken turbocharger) also caused the delay, as the train was picking up one or two minutes between each stop.
