On an otherwise very quiet Boxing Day east of Montréal, CN's daily Toronto-Halifax box train rolls east through Saint-Hyacinthe station.

FR – 26 octobre 2025 – Dolný Harmanec, Slovaquie

 

Sous l’étoile rouge, la vapeur dans la brume évoque l’ambiance ferroviaire de la Tchécoslovaquie communiste. Sur la ligne slovaque 170 Vrútky – Martin – Diviaky – Čremošné – Banská Bystrica, la 475.196 traverse sans arrêt la gare de Dolný Harmanec, en direction de Banská Bystrica.

 

Construite par Škoda en 1950, cette locomotive a assuré des services réguliers jusqu’en 1975. L’étoile rouge portée sur la porte de boîte à fumée rappelle la période socialiste de la Tchécoslovaquie et donne à cette scène photographiée en 2025 une forte atmosphère ferroviaire d’époque.

EN – 26 October 2025 – Dolný Harmanec, Slovakia

 

Under the red star, steam and mist briefly revive the railway atmosphere of socialist-era Czechoslovakia. On Slovak line 170, Vrútky – Martin – Diviaky – Čremošné – Banská Bystrica, 475.196 runs non-stop through Dolný Harmanec station, heading towards Banská Bystrica.

 

Built by Škoda in 1950, the locomotive remained in regular service until 1975. The red star carried on the smokebox door evokes the railway imagery of socialist-era Czechoslovakia and gives the scene a strongly period character although the picture was shot in 2025.

216 092, Essen Holthausen, 09.02.1989.

After lunch I got myself to what seemed to be a rather famous location. At a given moment, we were almost 10 people waiting for the southbound trains in Mezzocorona. The first freight that passed was this intermodal from Köln to Verona, hauled by Lokomotion's 193 404 and 193 771. First time I got to see an Alpha Trains Vectron for real. Meaning my last visit to the Brenner line was way too long ago.

It was a pleasant wait, but only 1 more freight came out of the mountains before it was time to move.

Het 4km lange traject van Stiege naar Hasselfelde (onderdeel van de Selketalbahn) wordt door slechts 4 treinen - waarvan 1 stoomtrein - per dag bediend. Harzer Schmalspurbahnen (HSB) stoomloc 99 7243-1 trekt de smalspoortrein hier door een winters landschap bij Stiege. Op de voorgrond zijn het geen grassprietjes maar forse struiken die net boven de sneeuw uitsteken. Het was dan ook stevig - heerlijk - ploeteren om dit fotopunt te bereiken.

Knisperend in de vers gevallen sneeuw is motorwagen 22 106 tot stilstand gekomen. Slechts één schoolmeisje klimt uit het hoge voertuig. De halte "Au" heeft de kortste stationsnaam van Oostenrijk. Ook het oponthoud is kort want aanstonds vertrekt de motorwagen uit Vorchdorf naar de eindbestemming Lambach. De veteraan uit 1951 presteert nog prima in de kou. Sneeuw en ijzel kunnen de door SGP in Graz gebouwde vierasser niet deren.

3002 heads train 45713 from Antwerp to Bettembourg. It is seen in Wetteren on March 20, 2021.

These locos were rare on this line. The only reason it passed here was the closure for the weekend of the east entrance of Antwerp North shunting station. Trains were all routed over Ghent, making the stretch of line 50 between Melle and Schellebelle the busiest freight corridor of the country for 2 days.

The weather on the Semmering line for the coming days would be rain, rain, and more rain. The north of Italy, however, looked promising, and by this time I was longing for a good dose of vitamin D. I decided to head to the border station of Tarvisio, that I had never visited before. These 3 hours on the road became some of the hardest I can remember. Due to an accident, I lost about an hour between Judenburg and Klagenfurt. And then the storm still had to come... I had to seriously reduce speed due to the heavy wind and rain, and at some point I couldn't avoid a traffic sign anymore that had given up resistance. Later than expected I arrived in Tarvisio at my hotel, where I could fortunately still enjoy a delicious pizza.

The morning after looked as if nothing ever happened... as morning afters can sometimes be like. During sunrise I drove to the entrance of the tunnel east of Tarvisio Boscoverde. I was lucky enough to catch the morning regional express train from Udine to Villach. Società Ferrovie Udine-Cividale owns 2 Taurus locomotives and a set of ex-ÖBB coaches for this service. This image at sunrise was well worth the ride for me. We see FUC 1216 301 (190 301) with regional train 1820 from Udine to Villach at Tarvisio Boscoverde. October 24, 2025.

Crnotice, April 29; 2022

We spent this year’s vacation along the coast of lake Garda, in the north of Italy. After the pizza, pasta, and good wine, it was time to spend some hours along the rail line running nearby for dessert. And which place would be more appropriate to go to than Dolcè? Dolcè is located along the freight corridor between Innsbruck and Verona. This beautiful section of the line runs through the vineyards, along the Adige river, with a constant background of tall mountains. On the pictures below I think we can distinguish Rocca Pia with a height of 1.051m. I got served many interesting trains within a timespan of 1,5 hours. The full set of pictures here.

 

On this picture we see an impressive combo of Lokomotion's EU43-003, 008 and 001 heading train 48867 from München to Verona Quadrante Europa. Dolcè, July 17, 2025.

Almost 10 years ago, on July 4 of 2015, I stood on this exact same spot. 10 years later I tried with different material, reaching a bit higher. And offering a very different view.

The Railtraxx shuttle to Linz had 266 017, aka PB12, as a leading unit. This loco used to run for Crossrail Belgium until a few months ago. It exchanged its red coat for a standard blue Beacon Rail one.

Here the Re 620 has another Re 420 or 430 in the power setup and forms an Re10.

Winter was in march 2018 strong for a few days. I used my walk from one office to the other to get a glimpse on the trains.

De nieuwe stationshal van Arnhem werd in november 2015 geopend en sindsdien kreeg het de Betonprijs 2015 in de categorie Utiliteitsbouw en de eretitel 'Dak van het jaar 2015'. Dit laatste ondanks de maar moeilijk op te sporen lekkages na een regenbui. Mijns inziens is het ontwerp geschikter voor een museum van moderne kunsten en ging de ambitie van de architect boven het belang van de reiziger met alle vloerhoogteverschillen en slinkse traptreden in deze stationshal. Fotogeniek is het moderne gebouw echter zeker en hier een blik op een gedeelte van het plafond.

"Mae Israel wedi treulio mwy na dwy flynedd yn ymosod ar Gasa yn ei rhyfel hil-laddiadol ar y diriogaeth Balesteinaidd. Mae wedi dinistrio'r rhan fwyaf o'i thai a'i hisadeiledd, ac wedi lladd mwy na 70,000 o Balesteiniaid, gan adael y gweddill o drigolion Gasa i wynebu gaeaf caled heb ddigon o fwyd na meddyginiaeth, ac yn byw heb gysgod digonol. -

Ac eto i gyd, dyma Brif Weinidog Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, gŵr y mae'r Llys Troseddol Rhyngwladol wedi cyhoeddi gwarant i'w arestio am droseddau rhyfel, yn ymuno yr wythnos hon â "Bwrdd Heddwch" yr Arlywydd Donald Trump. 23/01/26

"Israel has spent more than two years attacking Gaza in its genocidal war on the Palestinian enclave. It has destroyed the majority of its housing and infrastructure, and killed more than 70,000 Palestinians, leaving the rest of Gaza’s population facing a harsh winter with inadequate food, medicine, and shelter. -

And yet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – for whom the International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for war crimes committed in Gaza – this week joined US President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace”, established to oversee the reconstruction and governance of Gaza." 23/01/26
