Some days go better than others. This was one of the others, spent entirely at the east end of line 160. It started well enough, with the morning passenger to Kosice passing Hrhov in glorious light, but then things started to go wrong.

The freights that usually go east during the morning didn’t appear and the afternoon’s westbounds started running much earlier than expected, catching me out as I was still waiting for the non-existent eastbounds. By the time I’d moved to a good position for westbounds, two had already gone. The remaining two were almost lost to cloud, with the sun briefly illuminating one and the second, the pick-up, being good enough to do some shunting so I could get ahead for a second shot.

At least the afternoon passengers behaved themselves, taking my tally of good shots up to five. Not bad for one day but it should have been a lot more.
