Chemins de fer de la Corse, metre gauge, Renault ABH8 diesel autorail unit X206 (built 1949/50) coupled with 1947-vintage Billard driving trailer XR526 at Calvi - 21/09/2011.

X206 is believed to have been withdrawn from service in 2009 and replaced with AMG800 railcars. The assumption is therefore that this car was stored out of use when photographed.

No: M56182

Vehicle type: Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Company Class 104 (trailer)

Location: Holt Rail Station

Date: 8 May 2025

C'mon, there's no shame in a going-away shot if the loco is at this end - ZSSR's not-so-regal 'Princezná' 263 012 gets away from the station at Bernolákovo pushing driving trailer unit 951 008 which forms today's Os 4714 stopping service from Galanta to BHS.

Royal-watchers in the UK and beyond may be familiar with the person dubbed "Princess Pushy" by the British media - Princess Michael of Kent - birth name - Baroness Marie-Christine Anna Agnes Hedwig Ida von Reibnitz - is a member of the British Royal Family having married Queen Elizabeth II's cousin Prince Michael of Kent (born Michael George Charles Franklin) in 1978.

Born into nobility in 1945 in Karlovy Vary (present-day Czechia but German-occupied Sudetenland at that time), Marie-Christine's father was a Baron and her mother a Countess. She apparently was given the nickname "Princess Pushy" by Queen Elizabeth's daughter Princess Anne due to her strong views, straight talking and abrupt nature (Pot/kettle anyone?) and quickly adopted by the newspapers.

In the foreground at the very bottom right-hand corner of the frame it seems that a section of rail (marked by the number 921 and obvious signs of welding) has been repaired or 'dropped in' at some point.

I cannot be more precise than say that these are two driving trailers of Treinitalia, seemingly of the same class. But I can see at least seven detailed diffrences between them, so modellers beware!
