The signal box of Zavoy / Завой, Bulgaria
The Aurubis copper smelter Pirdop in Bulgaria ensures - especially by Bulgarian standards - extensive and regular freight traffic by rail, which is managed by various railway companies. In addition to copper, sulphuric acid is also produced there, which is transported to the port of Burgas.
But as Miroslav commented below, this train is from Varna with destination the KCM plant near Plovdiv.
In the Zavoy / Завой station, the train with tank wagons passes the abandoned signal box on the 800 Plovdiv - Burgas line in the last evening light. The train is led by the former Danish ME 3009, now used as 86 005 by Bulmarket Rail Cargo EOOD.
