Sinds het voorjaar van 2021 rijdt Rail Force regelmatig kolentreinen naar het in Oost Tsjechië gelegen Ostrava. De treinen werden eerst nog beladen op de Rotterdamse Maasvlakte, maar vertrekken nu alweer geruime tijd uit de Amsterdamse Westhaven. Werden voorheen nog verschillende type wagens ingezet, de kolen worden nu alleen nog in openbak wagens type Ea(n)os vervoerd.
De trein rijdt in principe drie keer per week, maar soms wil nog wel eens een slag uitvallen. De beladen trein vertrekt op maandag, woensdag en vrijdagochtend uit Amsterdam met een of twee 1800'en van Rail Force One naar Bad Bentheim. Hier neemt ITL Deutschland de trein over en vaak neemt Rail Force One de lege trein dan weer mee terug naar Amsterdam.
Eind februari 2023 zat al enige dagen de 1828 in de kolenomloop. Deze locomotief valt extra op vanwege de Amtrak-style (of Nederlandse vlag) die ze een stuk frisser maakt dan de 1829, haar grijze soortgenoot. Zonder de tractie te weten werd op maandag 27 februari naar Teuge gereden voor de beladen trein richting Tsjechië. Het geluk was mijnerzijds want de 1828 zat er daadwerkelijk nog voor.
We finished our short day trip to Częstochowa in Februrary around the western side of the steelworks, on the branch leading towards the EHAZET plant, which receives hot slag in wagons for further processing. We didn't spot any trains, but at least we spotted 6De-2637 during shunting duties around the plant in the background. The main part of the steelworks is to the right of the image.
The EHAZET branchline is to be closed soon due to the fact that the slag processing plant is planning to move to a new location near the rolling mill, to the east of the whole industrial complex.
I talked about the 6De engines broadly in one of my previous posts, so if you're curious, have a read here!

A BRC crew sets off a grain train in 100th Street Yard in Chicago's Slag Valley neighborhood, named for the former Wisconsin Steel slag dumps in the neighborhood, with a trio of Watco SD60Ms that came down from WSOR the night before. It is not uncommon for BRC trains to use WSOR power on runs to South Chicago.

sometimes there are slagbombs...this wasn`t one !

I love my city, and I like its industry, which inspired me to create this CG-Art in 3ds max and v-ray
With the end of steam working at Baoutou steelworks imminent, here is a reminder of how it looked when tipping the liquid slag. The light on the drifting steam was worth waiting for and lasted for just a few seconds.
The ATB Undaunted/Pere Marquette 41 makes its way across Muskegon Lake with a load of slag from the south end of Lake Michigan.

37402 & 407 climb away from Heywood Road Junction near Slag lane on the outskirts of Westbury. They were working the 1136 Parkstone to Westbury ballast spoil service.
This is a tighter shot than my previous panoramic shot of the same service.
Op 23 november organiseerde TSP / CFBocq een rit met de HLD 5519. Deze rit kreeg de naam" De Slag om de Ardennen" en dit is de tweede railtour die men organiseerde.
Deze foto werd gemaakt in Libramont waar we even moesten wachten op HLR 7751 van B-Technics. Deze kwam ons depaneren om toch nog één goederenspoor te kunnen bezoeken, namelijk dat van Molinfaing.

Sinds 1 april is er een kleine verandering gekomen in de Dolime-omloop. De extra slag naar Veendam rijdt nu niet meer op zaterdag maar op dinsdag. Vandaag 1 mei 2019 reed de opvallende Class 513-10 als trekkracht voor de lege trein, net als eerder op 10 april 2019. Nadat in de nacht van dinsdag op woensdag door de 77'ers van de reguliere trein de naar Veendam waren gebracht, zou de 513-10 de inmiddels geloste reguliere wagenset op woensdag 10 april 2019 weer naar België brengen. Met ca 1,5 uur vertraging waardoor een foto bij Putten mogelijk werd zien de lange trein hier bij Putten passeren op weg naar het zuiden.
Weirton Steel S2 211 rolls through Weirton Junction, West Virginia, travelling from the slag dump to the mill.
The last dribbles of slag trickle into crucible cars while more coal arrives at right.

The Mam Tor end of Edale Valley. It's almost like an alien landscape, especially in this light. In daylight the little mounds in the foreground look like they are probably manmade. I wonder if they are the "slag heaps", or "Spoil Heaps" from quarrying?
A Standard Slag GE 65-Tonner stands in front of a processing facility in Wierton, West Virginia. There is a small “20046” marking on the upper right corner of the unit. This leads me to believe that this unit is now Middletown & Hummelstown, which is identified as former Standard Slag 46.
A loaded slag shuttle heads back down the Smelter branch to unload at the concentration dumper below Hayden.
The Ema Slag Heap in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
On the right bank of the Ostravice River, this slag-heap (an artificial hill created by piling up waste material from coal mines) reaches a height of 315 metres above sea level. It enjoys its own unique subtropical climate because the waste material is still burning deep beneath the surface – white smoke still billows from the cracks in the ground. Snow never settles here, and flowers grow all year round. From the top of Ostrava’s very own volcano you can enjoy some wonderful panoramic views of the city. Families can be seen climbing the heap on weekends.

Clugston Slag's Yorkshire Engine Company 0-6-0DE "Lincolnshire Poacher" (YE 2631/1957) shunting BR ballast hoppers at the Slag Reduction facility, BSC Appleby-Frodingham, Scunthorpe - c.1968.
The diesel-shunter was new to Clugston Slag on 26//02/1957 and continued to work at Scunthorpe until October 1983 when it was sold to J Potts of Grimsby. It is believed to have been scrapped in January 1990.

Hot work on the slag tipping area at the ArcelorMittal integrated steelworks at Dunkerque. The plant produces more than 6 million tonnes of steel per year.
