In het allerlaatste zonlicht van de dag.
In the very last sunlight of the day.
Im allerletzten Sonnenlicht des Tages.
Aux toutes dernières lueurs du jour.
En los últimos rayos de sol del dÃa.
Nell'ultimo raggio di sole del giorno.
Nos últimos raios de sol do dia.

A timely heads-up of this much delayed train, and having to work at home, were the needed combination for this picture.

Last picture of the day: the evening passenger train to Casablanca.
What else to remember: the versatility of our rental car when it comes to uncap a bottle.

Today I did something that I haven't done in a long time: take a day off to make photos of passenger trains. Passenger. Trains. Really.
The intercity trains between Schaarbeek and Kortrijk are still hauled by vintage 21 and 27 series locomotives. These machines are about my age and as such I've known them all my active railfanning life. They are being gradually withdrawn though, and this realizing was one of the factors deciding to spend a day chasing them. Another important factor being that I had found a lot of nice spot between Oudenaarde and Zottegem during my bicyle rides, but I didn't make photos there yet.

In the fields in Ras El Ain, we could get a full view of one of these mighty phosphate trains. The nez cassé locomotive fits the brown-yellow landscape really well.
Also notice the vintage Mercedes "Grand Taxi", that you find all over the place.

We only had to wait shortly to see this train running to one of the ports.
With the Japanese Hitachi loco hauling the French Alstom loco, 2 competing companies today, it's an interesting view.

It took a lot longer than expected to get to my hotel close to Zilina, Slovakia. The road was narrow, full of curves and rather busy. I did enjoy, though, and I enjoyed the warm dish and the spacious room at the hotel even more. The next day, I had planned a day on the non-electrified railway lines around Horna Stubna, hoping to see some of the 754-series locomotives in action. And who knows, maybe even a "Bardotka" with a freight train.
Not knowing what to expect, I just went to the station of Klastor Pod Znievom where I was lucky enough to catch 754 020 hauling a train to Horna Stubna. A very good start of the day!

As shadows were getting longer, a distant noise announced the train I came here for. The rush hour train with a 21 series locomotive was nice, and a freight train would only make it better. The then regular SNCF train towards France was about right on time and marked the moment to head home after a succesfull photo-evening.

Het spoorwegstation Rotterdam Stadion - geopend in 1937 - wordt normaliter alleen gebruikt bij voetbalwedstrijden en evenementen in De Kuip. In het weekend van 24-25 juni 2023 eindigden hier echter de reguliere treinen uit het zuiden in verband met werkzaamheden te Rotterdam Centraal. Nu de toegangshekken geopend waren was dit een mooie gelegenheid hier de infra vast te leggen.
Zeer klassiek (en vermoedelljk uniek) is de treinaanwijzer met de verlichte neonletters van de sporen 'SP 3A', 'SP 4A’ en bestemming 'Dordrecht'. De bediening hiervan gebeurt vanuit het duiventil-achtige verblijf op de loopbrug. Overdag brandden meerdere bestemmingen naar het zuiden maar ik was blij dat bij zonsondergang niet alles al uitgeschakeld was.
The Dutch railway station Rotterdam Stadion is normally only used during football matches and events at the nearby stadium. However, on the weekend of 24-25 June 2023, trains from the south ended here due to works at Rotterdam Central. This was a great opportunity to capture the infrastructure here for a change.
Very classic (and presumably unique) is the surviving train indicator with the illuminated neon letters of the tracks 'SP 3A', 'SP 4A' and destination 'Dordrecht'. During the day, several other destinations to the south were manually lit but I was glad that by sunset not everything was already switched off.

We spent a recent family weekend in the border region near Montzen. On two occasions I got out to make a few photos in Remersdaal: once during daytime, once during nighttime. Both times I got a mixed freight train from Antwerp to Köln headed by a double Traxx engine. And that's where the similarities between the two photos end. 4 different liveries, 2 operators and a totally different atmosphere. Not sure which one I prefer, I enjoyed the "making of" of both as much.
This picture shows Lineas' 186 492 and 186 454 hauling a mixed freight from Antwerp to Köln-Gremberg.
