The 406R family of tanker wagons has been the predominant type of tanker carriages on the Polish railways since the 1960s onwards, until the large influx of modern wagons from abroad in the 1990s. In recent years, it's really hard to spot them.
An interesting fact is, that some terminals were built specifically to handle the length of those wagons exactly, and trains heading to them have to be entirely formed with the now archaic type of carriage. On such terminal is the crude oil loading point near Barnówko.
This train was heading a rake of 35 such empties from the Orlen fuel refinery as TMS 584003 Gdańsk Olszynka - Gorzów Wielkopolski Towarowy GT (and later Barnówko). Those trains, along with loaded tanker trains to Kostrzyn (also ran by Orlen Kolej), are nowadays the only source of regular traffic on this part of the old Ostbahn. The trains usually run at night and with a more modern loco, this one was an exception - with a modernised M62-282 and in pleasant afternoon light. The picture presents it minutes after entering the Ostbahn line on the Suchostrzygi junction. It has just passed the passenger stop Rokitki Tczewskie and is heading towards Starogard Gdański.

This glass button has never been used. It's about ¾" wide and was made in the Czech Republic in the 1920s. It's so delicate I'm a bit scared to handle it, to be honest, but it's survived for 100 years and I love its fragile beauty. The button is sitting on a length of hand-torn fabric ribbon.

A pair of hepaticas pushing up through the leaf litter in the forests of Great River Bluffs State Park in southeastern Minnesota. A great way to announce the start of spring woodland wildflower season. We're due for a winter storm tomorrow with rain, freezing rain and some snow. The tough little hepatica will handle it just fine.

A Wetherspoon pub in Oxford, I think named in honour of the classic comedy sketch on TV by The Two Ronnies, broadcast in 1976.
This little cactus has tiny spines that easily detach and spear the skin. Cute plant though ;)
