In the Morning, july 29th 2002 in Smržovka, the photographers are
waiting for extra train pulled by steamer 464.008 from Liberec. The
panorama under Špičák is wonderful, the weather terribble: it is
raining...

8:35 Jablonec
9:53 Tanvald (arrival 9:30)

... and after arrival in Tanvald
R.K. |
 |
where the pretty renewed 715.003 is waiting - sorry
T426.003. Still in february it looked a little bit other
way. The "tomcat" 743 at the end of the train is changed by T426.001

Extra train - slightly delayed - nearby the rails of Jablonec glas works
(yes, these rails with the big stone
). Stamer makes as lot steam as possible, on the bridge over Black Desna (Černá
Desná) she must go very slowly due to start of cog - and then the rising 570/00.

Already in Prague I thought about the bridge - but the nature is vicious: the bridge is hidden beneath
the tree leaves.

 |
The first of the Austrians hooks and the engines begin to push.

|
 |
The steamer 464.0 at the train's head do her best and the trains goes very slowly.
The published video-page contains avi-file with size cca 2MB - so, please,
be patient, if you open it! S.K.

Not only the engines, but also the fan works at their top of performance!
S.K. |
 |
Dolní Polubný. The start again, now to the rising 580/00!
S.K. |
 |
Train depart from Dolni Polubny: the diesel cog engine slowly goes on
the cog rod: after the gear is in, the sound signal follows and both
locomotives moves with full power.
Sorry for the non-stabilized video. Try to run over the hill
from Riedl thumb to the tunnel mouth at Dolni Polubny....S.K. |

The T426.003 goes onto cog (it is the next train). No sound of the cog, only
diesel roaring and fan noise can be heared.
S.K. |
 |
The Austrians from both trains go onto head of one train. The 743-s onto the others.
S.K. |
 |
The two Austrians together - it is not obvious picture!
S.K. |
 |
... and Robert makes the second one.
R.K. |
 |
Also the 404.003 from Jaroměř came to the celebration...
S.K. |
 |
...but without the rods ...
S.K. |
 |
... and little bit appart from other engines.
