Between the blockade miles outside of Horseshoe Curve and the mass crowds I picked a location just west of the Brickyard in Altoona to get the Big Boy working up the mountain. Pictured is NS 061 creeping up the hill west of the Brickyard in Altoona.

Dreadfull hazy weather but what do you do if the ultra rare Kazakh Airforce Yak42 is on deck?
Totally unknowing of it's movement, as usual, I camped the whole day and gambled on the fact that the Yak42 would have quite terrible take off performance on a hot humid day with no wind and on high altitude but it was even WAY lower on departure then I expected;

SJ X2 2036-1 på väg genom Hjärup med tåg 533 från Stockholm C till Malmö C

The Carpathian mountains form a huge belt from Slovakia, via Poland, Ukraine, ending in Romania (or Serbia). In all of those countries some of the most prominent tourist resorts are located. Such is also the case in Ukraine.
Almost all of the biggest resorts lie along one railway line. Яремче, Буковель, Ясіня and Рахів are all connected by the line Делятин — Ділове (- Valea Vișeului). Alongside the numeruous night expresses which come here every morning from all around the country, passengers can use the way less attractive regional trains, which only run once daily and have ridiculously long ride times
The pictured train 6403/4 Яремче – Івано-Франківськ has just started its daily journey a few minutes before, as the picture was being taken at Дора. From here onwards it will cover the next 59 kilometers in 1h 40m. As every day, on 6.07.2026 it was ran by what looks like a normal loco-hauled train, but is in fact a trainset, called DPL1. This one is ДПЛ1-005, coupled with section A of 2М62-1001. It belongs to УЗ's Фiлія "Приміська пасажирська компанія" ("Suburban Passenger Company") since January of 2024 when the company's structure was reorganised.
The backdrop of the picture is formed by the mountain Маливо, sitting at 845m above sea level.
