The day started cloudy with light rain. It was one of the few things that turned out as predicted on what became a day of surprises. The first surprise was unwelcome, a 101 on IC181, booked for a 181 on Fridays, but most of the others were pleasant and by the end of the day I had photographed half a dozen trains in sun, three of them hauled by 110.418 or 115.459.
It seemed that the 181 had been replaced by the 101 booked for the next train, which had then been worked by the 110. After that things slowly returned to normal on the passenger front with the 181 working its booked afternoon southbound train. Not to be left out, DB Regio had its own surprise lined up for the afternoon with top’n’tail 146s on one of the Singen trains. Even the normally predictable freights were unpredictable with a 152 breaking the usual 185 monopoly and a number of unexpected additional trains.
The weather was nothing like as bad as forecast, with some good breaks developing in the cloud between mid-morning and mid-afternoon, and no sign of the predicted frequent showers. Overall a good day, against all the odds, with three well lit pics of class 110/115 to add to the single shot I got in April.
