Four ground men and a driver comprised the crew for working the coach yards at Thessaloniki on this day. The european-style switch engine is a design unique to the USA, a three axles, side-rod contraption with an off-center cab. All Greek diesels carried the A (alpha in Greek) in front of their number.
With the Thessaloniki platforms visible in the distance, two Fiat Rail cars are hustling westbound toward the town of Florina. This is scheduled Train 617 carded on the public timetables. The coach yards are on the right side of the photograph and the engine in the distance is A370, an Alstrom product known as a Transportation Export model. It is backing down to couple up to another soon-to-be-departing train.
Sticking with the former Yugoslavian countries it's one of my last photos taken in Montenegro so why not make it the first to post. The day had gone well with better weather so I decided to drive to Bar near to the end of the Belgrade - Bar railway line. Even though I was at the end of this impressive railway line the scenery still definitely had the wow factor with mountains overshadowing the coastal city.
I was glad to see that Train 6102 Bar - Bijelo Polje was indeed loco hauled and with a pair of Electroputere 461's! This made for quite an interesting sight with more powered axles than carriage axles in the train! With numbers one off from being consecutive ZPCG 461-041 and 461-039 get to grips with their light load having just departed Šusanj station in the suburbs of Bar.
A single car KiHa 40 cruses through the northern Kagoshima countryside having just departed from Uemura on a local service for Hayato.
One week after this photo was taken, this section of the Hisatsu Line was shut down due to multiple washouts and landslides from a torrential thunderstorm. After almost a year of repairs, JR Kyushu has scheduled the reopening and resumption of service for end of June 2026. Hisatsu Line service is almost back!
