The tram 13N #2412 comes from the last year of production of the Konstal 13N trams - 1969. To this day it serves as a transport/service tram on the Warsaw network, running between depots and workshops, together with 3 other trams of the same type, which have also been reconstructed to cargo trams. Among all of them, this one is the youngest.
It used to serve as 13N #778 and was a normal passenger tram. It received the number 2412 in 2002 (per phototrans.pl), but I don't know when exactly it was reconstructed. Nowadays it belongs to the depot R-3 Mokotów.
Here it is seen running on the short stretch between the T-1 service depot and the depot R-1 Wola, where the service depot T-3 is also located. Picture taken on the crossing of Wolska and Młynarska streets.

The Ostrołęka power plant is a complex of around 50 year old facilities generating power for north-eastern Poland. For shunting, it owns three TEM2 locomotives (TEM2-150, TEM2-151, TEM2-270) and one SM42 (2124).
Most of the time, there's not much traffic here, in the heating season the plant takes in maybe around 15 trains a week. It's therefore quite interesting that it has a whole four locomotives.
During our visit with the aim of photographing the railbus replacement service between Białystok and Ostrołęka, we stopped by in Ostrołęka to have a look. As a result, we got this shot of the only TEM2U in the plant - TEM2-270, as it was shunting a set of brown E-wagons around the facility.
An interesting curiosity is that a couple of years ago, a government investement called Ostrołęka C was planned, which was to be a whole new power plant complex located to the east of the current one (Ostrołęka B). Construction works started, but were later halted and what remains of it is now being dismantled.
