Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: container

Here's the newly modernised mainline south of Senohraby, albeit obscured by snow.

Nadrazi Senohraby was recently modernised, and so I've been taking more photos there this year than in the past. The trains, however, are often still ancient, like this Class 451 "Pantograph" EMU from the 1960's.

A number of express trains don't stop in Hostivar, so I've been able to get quite a few action shots there. The snowy days are the best, though, since powdered snow exaggerates the sensation of speed.

Here's another shot of the container train.

There's also a lot of freight traffic through Hostivar, mostly consisting of container trains. The next stop south is actually Urineves, which has an intermodal facility.

As I said earlier, there are a surprising number of older locomotives in freight service around Prague nowadays. Here 130006-0, built in the 1970's (with a car body design based on earlier Skoda electrics from the 1950's), works a container train through Hostivar.

Just randomly, I also discovered this old CSD-era cargo container being used, I'm assuming, as a shed, still painted for CSD.
