Shunting the docks.

The Belgian port of Zeebrugge is an extremely busy one. As they once did here in the UK, railways continue to play an important role in the transport process with the docks and the surrounding area abounding in their infrastructure. Long trains of containers are constantly arriving and departing with pilot locos specifically employed to service the needs of the various operators. Here one such is caught by the camera having deposited a rake of wagons and then making it's way back to the central yard in town.
