Various photos and tickets

This is 83-040, Budapest 5003/1929 at the Kharkov Pioneer Railway in Russia after the second world war.  Thanks to Sergei Dorozhkov of Pereslavl Narrow Gauge Museum for the information.  More photos of 83-040 at Kharkov may be viewed here.


73-018 scares the waiting horses as it crosses the Travnik to Lasva road near Vitez in August 1965.
There were 23 of these Class 73 2-6-2's which were built as light passenger locomotives.  This loco is one of three preserved and can be seen at Jablanica.  Note the shell cases filled with flowers above the cylinders.
