A much more common locomotive in the yard that day was this 742 Class, which was sitting outside a different locomotive shed.

These locomotives were across the yard at one of the locomotive sheds (Kralupy has more than one), and if the scan had been better (I didn't do this roll of film myself, but had a crappy photo lab handle it), I would be able to read the numbers, but that will have to wait until I get around to rescanning the photo myself. In any case, these are "bespectacled" diesels, and because I can't read the number I don't know if they're original or rebuilt.

I just liked the composition of this shot. I'm not sure if the exposure could have been better, particularly in the background, but as it is I still like it.

Sitting next to the Kostel Nanebevzeti Panni Marie, almost unknown, is this building with art nouveau murals along the roof.

I took this walking back towards the station. If you look carefully, you'll notice this is the same street as in the other Fall colors photos, only facing the other direction.

Built in 1893, after a 15-year delay due to lack of funds, this church is constructed in the neo-Gothic style, and fooled me easily enough. There are some genuine Gothic churches in Bohemia that actually look less authentic.

Here's another shot from roughly the same place which I enhanced the saturation on somewhat.

This was a small park near the station (nadrazi), and since it was around November when I visited, the leaves were changing for the Fall.

I'm not aware of the year that Nadrazi Kralupy nad Vltavou was built, but it looks very much like it's from the 1960's, inside as well as out. It's still quite a busy station, being on the mainline between Prague and Dresden.
