A 1Z10 trip to West Yorkshire, one of our first ports of call was here at Dewsbury in the morning, but in full dull. Fortunately we returned in the evening as the clouds parted throwing some lovely light on the scene. The best location and conditions of the day for me.

Dans le calme du paysage hivernal, le PYO 262 Kolari – Helsinki avance au cœur des étendues nordiques. Bien avant d’entrer dans le cadre, le convoi s’était déjà laissé deviner au loin, dans cette section droite de dix kilomètres. Ce train, qui circule quelques fois par semaine durant la saison hivernale, offre un complément au train de nuit régulier qui relie chaque jour l'extrême nord du réseau finlandais à la capitale du pays. L'image est prise dans la gare de croisement de Sieppijärvi. Grâce à l'épaisse couche de neige, la deuxième voie, visiblement non utilisée, est cachée.

08.52: DB Regio's 146 110-2 on the RE7 from Basel Bad back to Offenburg Hbf.
The RE7 is half hourly during the rush hour and hourly for the rest of the day.
Still the same 14 years later in 2026, but the Traxx have been cascaded elsewhere and this is a now an EMU service, like so many in Germany.
The Traxx P160 AC1 Class 146s were the last locos built purely for regional trains in Germany.
They were built between 2001 and 2003 for both DB and Hamburg's Metronom. And then in batches, as needed, until 2013.
25 Traxx P160 AC1 were also built for the Hungarian national carrier MAV (480 001-1 to 480 025-0 H-START).
The 25 Siemens BR 182 Taurus loks, were delivered in 2001, but not for this role.
They were built for DB Cargo, but moved to DB Regio when they had a surplus of locos after a downturn in freight in 2009.
146 110-2 was delivered from Bombardier’s Kassel Werke to DB on 26/08/2004 (Works No. 33991).
It was sent on delivery to Freiburg where it stayed until the 14/12/2019 and the December timetable change.
Since then, 146 110-2 has worked off Münster (Westf), where it is still active today in April 2026.
A southbound NSW Countrylink XPT near Koolewong, New South Wales, on 15 January 2020. The train would have originated in Brisbane or Casino, but unfortunately didn't take any notes the time.
18 power cars were delivered between 1981 and 1992 and remain on service today on long distance passenger trains in NSW. Their replacement programme has been an ongoing farce.
