(EN) On the morning of 22/09/2015. there was a rather unusual sight at Zagreb's main railway station, because the most powerful Croatian locomotive series 1142 rarely gets in charge of regional train services. The next-to-last locomotive of the series, 1142 015, was given the task of bringing the regional train 2013 to Vinkovci, which it will work off easily, as there are only three wagons to be hauled and the route is running throughout the lowland.
(DE) Ein eher ungewohnter Anblick ist am Vormittag des 22.09.2015. am Zagreber Hauptbahnhof zu sehen, denn die leistungsstärkste kroatische Lokbaureihe 1142 verirrt sich nur selten an die Spitze von Regionalzugleistungen. Die vorletzte Lokomotive der Reihe, 1142 015, bekam die Aufgabe den Regionalzug 2013 nach Vinkovci zu bringen, welche sie mit nur drei Wagen am Haken und auf der durchgehend im Flachland verlaufenden Strecke wohl problemlos bewältigen wird.
Not sure if this is how these are supposed to look.
Update: I think this must be how these are supposed to look, as this is now the most interesting image in my photo stream.....time to go make more!

While I was at Didcot I took some video starring the amazing Steam Railmotor, and this is now on YouTube. To make viewing easier, I have broken it down into three bite-sized chunks and here are the links:

Chemin de fler
Il y en avait tout vraiment tout le long de la voie, illustrant possiblement le fait que nous rêvons tout le long du chemin, en général..
They covered all the way long, maybe illustrating how we may think to advance but dreaming instead..
(EN) In the past three years, the croatian VT 612, which are usually in charge of the intercity services to Split, more often go astray on the Varazdin diesel route, mostly as a replacement for the three-part DMU prototype 7022 001. The 7123 001/002 came on wintry 07/02/2015. for the first time on this route, seen here as regional train 3011 from Varazdin to Zagreb in the long curve before entering the station of Zabok.
(DE) In den letzten drei Jahren verirren sich die eigentlich für die Intercity-Leistungen nach Split bestimmten kroatischen VT 612 öfters auf die Varazdiner Dieselstrecke, meistens als Ersatz für den dreiteiligen VT-Prototyp 7022 001. Der 7123 001/002 kam am winterlichen 07.02.2015. das erste Mal zum Einsatz auf dieser Strecke, hier zu sehen als Regionalzug 3011 von Varazdin nach Zagreb in der langen Kurve vor der Einfahrt in den Bahnhof von Zabok.
R15030. A Class X3800 ‘Picasso’ diesel railcar at Hallines on the The Chemin de fer Touristique de la Vallée de L’Aa (or Aa Valley Tourist Railway). This is a volunteer run heritage railway based at Arques in northern France around 49km (or 30½ miles) from the Channel Coast at Calais. It’s 15km ( or a bit over 9 miles) long and ends at Lumbres.
As well as Picasso railcars there are also loco hauled passenger carriages for which the motive power is a BB63000 B-B diesel-electric locomotive or a Polish Ty2 ‘Kriegslok’ 2-10-0.

Now rusting away in a junkyard in Southern Indiana. The thing sure could use some restoration work done to it!

(EN) During the winter the long-distance trains from Zagreb to Split are instead of VT 612 consisted as a classic train set with locomotive and cars, and the railcars are used on other diesel routes in Croatia, also on the Zagreb – Varazdin mainline . On snowy 29/12/2014. has the 7123 005/6 just left the station Hum-Lug as regional train 3011 from Varazdin to Zagreb and is powering towards its next intermediate stop Zabok.
(DE) Während des Winters werden die Fernzüge von Zagreb nach Split anstatt mit VT 612 als klassischer Zugverband mit Lok und Wagen geführt, und die Triebwagen gelangen zum Einsatz auf anderen Dieselstrecken in Kroatien, unter anderem auch auf der Hauptstecke Zagreb – Varazdin. Der 7123 005/6 hat soeben am winterlichen 29.12.2014. als Regionalzug 3011 von Varazdin nach Zagreb die Haltestelle Hum-Lug verlassen und dieselt seinem nächsten Zwischenhalt Zabok entgegen.
