A very wet start. Although the rain died out by late morning, the sun never showed any sign of appearing. The same three 754s covered the Zabreh - Jesenik passenger turns, although 754.028 and 754.031 had swapped around.

I went down to Hanusovice where five trains met around 10:00. In addition to the northbound and southbound fast trains with 754s, there were 810s on services from Lichkov and Stare Mesto pod Sneznikem and a 3 car 814 on the stopper from Sumperk. Three CD Cargo locos were stabled in the yard, two 751s and a 749.

Most of the day was spent at locations where I could keep an eye on the trains and the weather from the comfort of the car and move quickly to a photo position if the weather improved. It was also a good opportunity to catch up on some lost sleep.

By 16:00 I’d given up on the light and returned to the hotel. I did notice R905 going up the hill about 70 minutes late behind what I presume was 754.031.

Os3613 from Sumperk to Jesenik was worked by a 3-car class 814. All the other locals seen north of Hanusovice were 810s with an 843 covering all the semi-fasts.
