I passed this freight train in Jordbro today. Then, a little later, as I was closing in on Lake Rudan in Handen, I noticed a photographer standing by the side of the road. So I stopped for a chat. It turned out to be a German trainspotter, waiting for this Green Gargo locomotive.
I used this connection for ease on the test rig. Gearing would make it better; maybe XL motors, too.
Waiting for my train I explored the train station. I started to walk down this ramp to check out the basement, but security caught me pretty quick.
Ligne de Paris-Saint-Lazare au Havre :
Tracée le plus souvent dans la vallée de la Seine, franchissant six fois le fleuve, cette grande radiale possède un profil plutôt favorable de Paris à Rouen.
Au nord de la capitale normande, le plateau du pays de Caux, au relief pourtant peu accentué, doit être atteint par de longues rampes, rendant le profil un peu plus difficile et imposant de multiples ouvrages d'art. Elle possède un équipement de bon niveau, permettant un trafic élevé.

Fredericia, Denmark, Lyntogs and More, 17 Aug 1984
On Friday eventing, 17 August 1984, I took the bus from Karup air station to Herning after work, and from there took train IC 180 behind MZ 1439 to Fredericia. This was really my first time strictly railfanning in Denmark as the other days I'd been out seeing some of the other sites in the places I visited. In Fredericia, I just hung out on the platforms for a little over an hour.
Fredericia is a city of about 40,000 people. From a railroad perspective, it is an important junction as it is the place where all rail lines in Jutland come together and funnel onto the line across the Little Belt to the island of Fyn and then to Copenhagen.
In the little over an hour I was there, I saw 3 Lyntogs, several Intercity trains, MR DMUs and a few freights with MZ and MX power, plus a couple of MH switchers. Lots of trains and good variety.
The Lyntogs were the DSB version of the German VT11. The VT11s were all first class TEEs, while the Lyntogs had first and second class seating. The Lyntogs had a power car at each end, a first class coach a second class coach, two second class coaches with cabs, a second class coach and a first class coach. The reason for the driving cabs was that the Lyntogs split on Jutland and the 2 sections served different lines, so 2 Lyntogs out of Copenhagen could directly serve 4 destinations on Jutland with one seat service. The Intercity trains offered schedules that were nearly as fast, but did not split en route so an IC ran through to one destination and other lines along the way were served by DMU connections.
Today Fredericia is electrified and the electric trains run through to Copehagen without having to ride a ferry boat across the Great Belt from Fyn to Sjaelland. The fast trains make the 215 km run to Copenhagen in 1 hr 46 min, quite a bit faster than in the days of the ferry crossing.

Back in 2002 or 2003, we got word that this former Chessie System unit was tied down for the weekend in Aberdeen, NC. So naturally we made the drive up from Lancaster, SC to shoot it.

Yesterday I drove around the cargo train station in my hometown and mentioned a lonely train without windows standing on the tracks. Today I had to have a closer look on it with my camera.

4 new 2010 LEGO sets seen in background: 7936 Level Crossing, 7937 Train Station, 7938 Passenger Train, 7939 Cargo Train + 3182 Airport. I'm wondering if either of the train starter sets will finally come complete with the necessary PF motor, remote, receiver & battery in the box (which would probably push the price up to $250 USD)

For those who lived in Paris, this train is famous. The RER A is the suburban train that most of the Parisian take every morning to go to work.
This is my humble tribute to this packed out train.
