The Banovce - Humenne line has to be among the least photogenic lines in Slovakia. It runs through a fairly featureless landscape and is poled and heavily overgrown. It does have a good service of loco hauled trains but I couldn’t find anywhere worth photographing them.
In the afternoon I moved to the Humenne - Presov line where there were three loco hauled trains booked. This line is also poled and overgrown in places but it runs through hilly country and there are a number of good photo positions. The best shot on the line is of a westbound train crossing the viaduct immediately west of Hanusovce nad Toplou mesto in the middle of the afternoon and Sunday is the only day there’s a loco hauled train in the right direction at the right time. The last of the three trains was a bit of a let down. Instead of expected three coaches with a 754 on each end, it turned up with just a single 754 hauling an 812 plus trailer.
