Description
Hungary: We visit the 750-mm narrow gauge lines in north-eastern Hungary during a winter’s February. The 'Nyírségi kisvasút' line to the north of Nyíiregyyhaza is featured including spectacular scenes where both local roads and railway tracks are obscured by snow. Class Mk48 diesels dominate;
Lithuania: A visit to the Vilnius area as we feature Soviet made TEP60, TEP70, 2M62, M62 and 2TEP diesel locos in action as well as a number of electric multiple units. Some massive freight trains are seen hauled by some equally massive locomotives!
Czech Republic: The junction town of Ceské Budéjovice is the focal point as we look at the various lines radiating from it. We see class 230, 240, 242 and 363 electrics and class 749 diesels;
Hungary: A view of mainline electric services in the south-west corner of the Lake Balaton area. Also included are M62 diesels on construction trains, a cab-ride in a class M41 and a look at the narrow-gauge line out of Balaton-Feneyves.
