Hemos tenido ocasión de ver este mismo tren (si no me equivoco) dirigiéndose hacia la Estación de Valencia-Fuente de San Luis.
Ahora lo vemos unos minutos después en el último tramo de su viaje (tras cambiar el sentido de su marcha) dirigiéndose hacia la Estación del Norte

Renfe medium distance train passing through VALENCIA
We have had the opportunity to see this same train (if I'm not mistaken) heading towards Valencia-Fuente San Luis railway station .
Now we see it a few minutes later, (after changing the direction of its march) on the last segment of its journey, moving towards Estación del Norte.
This is why I like photography so much, it makes beautiful some things which one (myself included) would normally consider ugly. I do absolutely not regret having climbed a “terril” under more than 30 degrees to catch this view… More pics from Charleroi will follow…
Voici pourquoi j’aime tant la photographie, elle permet, grâce à la lumière, de rendre belles des choses que d’aucuns (moi compris) trouveraient en temps normal laides… Je ne regrette absolument pas l’ascension du terril sous la canicule pour obtenir cette vue… D’autres photos de Charleroi suivront…
Este apeadero forma parte de la línea C-3 de Cercanías Valencia, y se sitúa entre las Estaciones de Loriguilla-Reva y Cheste. También dispone de servicios de media distancia.
En la imagen vemos el único andén lateral, que da acceso a la vía principal.
The Sölvesborg Bridge has been awarded one of the ten most interesting bridges in the world 2013. The bridge is the longest bicycle and pedestrian bridge in Europe and special attention has been given to the spectacular lighting design.
The Sölvesborg Bridge reaches across the bay of Sölvesborg, connecting the center of this Swedish town with a new housing district. Due to its spectacular design and lighting the Sölvesborg Bridge has given both residents of Sölvesborg and tourists a new exciting place to visit. People go for a walk or ride their bikes, they stop and look at the birdlife or they have pick nicks on the bridge, some even go fishing. In other words, the bridge functions as an urban space connecting urban life and nature – and it is the new landmark of the town.
The bridge consists of a higher part made out of three characteristic vaults and a long wooden bridge for pedestrians. Due to the length of the bridge, at intervals along the way parts of the nature have been accentuated with light, for example trees and reeds are lit. Lighting is integrated in the railing on one side along the whole bridge. The impressive vaults are lit with coloured light and a subtle light underneath the bridge gives reflections in the water.
The area around the bridge is a nature environment with a rich birdlife. The lighting has thus been made with respect for the birdlife and is inspired by the migration of the birds during the whole year. To give the bridge a unique night-time look, colour-changing luminaries have been used. The light can be controlled to avoid disturbing the area´s wildlife and the character of the bridge can change over the year and the night. A number of scenarios can be used for different events in the city.
The aim with the lighting design has been to turn the bridge into a landmark during the dark hours and at the same time pay respect to the environment in which it is located. To prevent a barrier effect the fixtures are mounted on the outside of the bridge, with a glare shield to hide the light sources. The several light scenarios that can be chosen make the experience of the bridge non-static. The visitors feel that the bridge is dynamic and almost a living organism in the environment.
Designboom is the world's first digital architecture and design magazine with a very influential and well-reputed cultural blog.

In 2013 Designboom choose the Sölvesborg Bridge to be one of the most spectacular bridges in the world calling attention to its unique lighting design that enhances its landmark status.

Here the capture is well after sunset, and what looks like sunset lighting is more residual lighting from the lights of Baltimore City on the clouds. Makes for a pretty effect at this time of day in the very late evening blue hour.
I liked this comp here where both piers are pointing to the groups of lights that are on the far side of the river.
