Bien le bonjour!
Les BB 17000 ont disparue depuis pas mal de temps déjà et, dans ce contexte, je vous sort ma seule et unique photo correcte de la fameuse 17053 qui fût la dernière rescapée en livrée "En Voyage".
Là voici, poussant une VB2N, sur le point de griller la gare d'Herblay dans le Val d'Oise en direction Mantes la Jolie depuis Paris Saint Lazare sous un temps mitigé car un petit rayon de soleil est passé par en mode ninja au moment de la prise de vue.
A noter le petit effet IPCS en modifiant les feux de la locomotive, pour que cela soit sympa à regarder.
Une belle archive que je devais vous monter tôt où tard, malgré les mauvaises conditions.
A bientôt!

Good morning!
The BB 17000s have been gone for quite some time now, so I'm sharing my one and only decent photo of the famous 17053, which was the last survivor in the ‘En Voyage’ livery.
Here it is, pushing a VB2N, about to pass Herblay station in the Val d'Oise on its way from Paris Saint Lazare to Mantes la Jolie in mixed weather, as a small ray of sunshine appeared ninja-style just as the photo was taken.
Note the small IPCS effect by modifying the locomotive's lights to make it more pleasing to the eye.
A beautiful archive that I had to show you sooner or later, despite the poor conditions.
See you soon!

The benjamin of the 1216 series is seen with a Railjet from Bologna to München, against the backdrop of Predicola and Cima Monticello mountains.
The second generation Railjet rake was fortunately still hauled by a Taurus locomotive instead of yet another Vectron.

Day 2 of 2025 saw sun and clouds. When this train to Gent passed me, I saw mostly clouds. It wasn't as bad as a few hundred meters more towards Lokeren. There, sun and rain added some spectacle to the photo.
Timing is everything, as a few minutes earlier the foreground scene was also lit by the sun. And a few minutes after this shot, I had to run and seek shelter for the rain.

More pictures of that day are posted on railscapes.blog. More will follow, make sure to check it out the coming days.

Next up I chose to go to Wolfsbergkogel for getting pictures of some uphill trains. In the background we see the Kurhaus Semmering, built in 1909, and currently under renovation. Would be a good place to stay for a visit to this magnificent line, if you get a room with a view in the right direction.
Driving towards Semmering we see OBB 1144 250 with a sister and a Taurus locomotive. The train connects Šajdíkove Humence in Slovakia to Celje Tovorna in Slovenië.

Medway's Neuss to Antwerp container shuttle for mother company MSC was right on time to enjoy some early spring sunshine. A few more kilometers to go before it has reached its final destination, it passes through this rare rural lap of ground just north of Antwerp.

I ended the day close to the French border. I knew that there was a train scheduled from Tournai to Longeau. It would have to leave on time though, because scheduled departure was only 20 minutes before the sun would be too low. I headed to Froyennes, on the line towards Lille, and set up a shot with the Théâtre Saint-Luc in the background. This is part of a 19th century boarding school, and is now converted to an event location. Then the waiting began. I saw the shadows creeping further and further, until finally, right on time, the Euro 4001 locomotive rented by Railtraxx came in sight. 2 minutes later the tracks were covered in shadows. Sometimes you’re lucky!
This train marked the end of a beautiful, but rather quiet, day, filled with a lot of diesel traction.

De NS wandeling van station Elst (Gld) naar station Arnhem voert - met wat kleine omwegen - ook langs wat aardige punten voor treinspotters, zoals de Spoorbrug Oosterbeek over de Nederrijn bij Arnhem. Na drie kwartier van 'nieten' in de wolken/zonloterij was dan eindelijk het moment daar dat de zon door de wolken kwam tegelijk met het passeren van een trein. Arriva GTW 258 van Arnhem naar Tiel was de gelukkige.

La foto mostra il Train liO 23014 Font-Romeu-Odeillo-Via - Villefranche - Vernet-les-Bains, affidato alle Z107, 111 e 118 e a tre vetture, mentre attraversa il secondo dei suddetti ponti, situato tra la fermata di Thuès-Carança e la stazione di Fontpédrouse-Saint-Thomas-les-Bains. 5 agosto 2025.

Is é an t-aidhm atá ag na Siónaigh i ngach áit an líne idir fuath ciníoch i leith na nGiúdach agus cáineadh ar choireanna cogaidh Iosrael a dhoiléiriú. Déantar iarracht eagla a chur ar dhaoine labhairt, fiú le rá gur drochrud é thart ar 60,000 leanbh a mharú i ndóigh uafásach. Tá airgead agus cumhacht acu agus éiríonn leo cúrsa na córa a shaobhadh.

Blurring the line between racist hatred of Jews and criticism of Israel's war crimes is the goal of Zionists everywhere. They try to make people afraid to speak, even to say that it is a bad thing to kill around 60,000 children in a dreadful manner. They have money and power and they succeed in perverting the course of justice. ---- www.nbcnews.com/world/asia/australia-passes-gun-restricti...
With connection from the mainland by ferry it is possible to go further by train in L’Île-Rousse. In the moment of taking this photo, the ferry starts its night journey to Sète.

This is my second photo of a CFL 3000 locomotive (the first one was number 3007 in Pétange 6 months earlier). It is also the last photo I ever made of this locomotive, as it burnt down 3 months after this photos was made and would never be reconstructed. The photo is all but unique, as it was taken during a TSP trip on line 42. That doesn't make it any less pleasing to look at though, perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Following the sun led me from Pyhrntal railway to the Rudolf Railway between Selzthal and St. Michael. I don't think I've ever made photos here, so that was an interesting stop. Besides a freight train, I also got this EuroCity train connecting Graz and Saarbrücken.
It was challenging to set up the pole here, on a 45° slope. Testing the limits, it turned out just fine.

Bien le bonjour!
On sort les vieux dossiers retravaillés de 2018/2019 et en voici un parmi les autre que je voulais retravailler.
Nous sommes en début juillet 2018, pas mal d'averses étaient de la partie mais aussi du soleil comme en témoigne ce jour là, le 5.
Voici le passage de la BB 67446 Bleu en tête de deux Rames Inox Omnibus où RIO des années 80 dans leurs livrées transiliennes, sur la ligne P pour La Ferté-Milon dans l'Aisne depuis Paris Est, sous le numéro 117253.
L'ensemble est aperçu dans les champs de la commune de Villenoy en Seine et Marne et s'apprête à desservir la gare de Meaux.
Voilà 5 ans que ces dernières ont disparu du paysage ferroviaire de l'est de l'Ile de France, remplacées par les AGC mais bon, c'était sympa mine de rien.
A bientôt!

Hello there!
We’re digging out the old, revised files from 2018/2019, and here’s one of the many I wanted to revisit.
It’s early July 2018; there were quite a few showers, but also some sunshine, as this particular day—the 5th—shows.
Here is BB 67446 Bleu leading two 1980s RIO stainless steel Omnibus trainsets in their Transilien livery, on Line P to La Ferté-Milon in the Aisne from Paris Est, under number 117253.
The train can be seen in the fields of the commune of Villenoy in Seine-et-Marne, preparing to serve Meaux station.
It’s been five years since these trains disappeared from the railway landscape of eastern Île-de-France, replaced by the AGCs, but hey, they were actually quite nice.
See you soon!
