Ty45-379 arriving at Kargowa, Poland. 24/04/2001.
Not exactly a taxing load for a large 2-10-0 but a sign of the times as freight was declining fast on the Polish rural lines at the turn of the Millennium.
Ty45-379 is seen running into Kargowa on the line from Wolsztyn to Sulechów with freight 488 the 07.10 from Wolsztyn Goods Yard. On this occasion one van of bagged fertiliser was the load. This shot was taken in the last few months of operation west of Powodowo as the line had lost its passenger service in February 1994 and freight was withdrawn in the summer of 2001.
