Metro Train Aboveground in Kacerov
Title:  Metro Train Aboveground in Kacerov
Description:  Ive rarely had the chance to catch a Prague Metro train aboveground, but in this case I was getting off the bus at Kacerov, on the far side of the street from the station, and the Ceske Drahy tracks, and Im guessing some DPP service tracks, run under the Metro line (enclosed in the bridge on the right).

CD Class 363 Silhouette
Title:  CD Class 363 Silhouette

CD Freight Vans in Hostivar Yard
Title:  CD Freight Vans in Hostivar Yard
Description:  These freight cars, the lead one a "freight van," or boxcar, in American English, were sitting in one of the sidings at Hostivar, and the light seemed perfect, so I tried some shots.

Express Passing Nadrazi Hostivar
Title:  Express Passing Nadrazi Hostivar
Description:  It isnt clear to me whether this was a Eurocity or a national "Rychlik" or Express train. The lighting was too bad to get the number, the train was a through express train not listed on the trainboard, and of course my cameraphone has crap resolution. Nevertheless, I decided to upload this runby just because I like how it looks.

Express Passing Nadrazi Hostivar, Picture 2
Title:  Express Passing Nadrazi Hostivar, Picture 2
Description:  Heres the second shot of the runby. The blue coach actually isnt a coach, but a diner or sleeper (I cant tell which) operated by JLV, a private rail services contractor. Since JLV specialise in running diners (or restaurant cars in European terminology), Im assuming its a diner.

Old Water Spout Hole
Title:  Old Water Spout Hole
Description:  A few years ago, I shot a photo of the still-surviving Cercany water spout, but now it seems to have been removed. This was the hole where it once stood. I thought that I had posted the old photo to Flickr, but it seems to be missing. Ill have to search for it.

CD 451065-7 "City Frog" in Praha Hlavni Nadrazi
Title:  CD 451065-7 "City Frog" in Praha Hlavni Nadrazi
Description:  Heres my latest spotting of #451065-7 "City Frog," so named as a parody of the new Class 471 "City Elephant" EMUs. Still no word on who did this, or whether it was authorised.

Tankers in Cercany
Title:  Tankers in Cercany
Description:  This shot was in some ways a lucky shot, since I like how it looks, in some ways not. Really what I wanted to do was get a shot of that black tanker over by the cantenary mast, as it had, Im not making this up, GATX markings. Apparently, GATX expanded their operations to Europe some time ago, and Ive seen a lot of their stuff rolling around.

CD 751004-3 and 742086-2
Title:  CD 751004-3 and 742086-2
Description:  As always, there are still a number of old diesel locomotives sitting around the Cercany yard. 742086-2 is still in CD colors, but the logos have been removed from 751004-3, so I dont know who its current operator is.

CD 810198-2
Title:  CD 810198-2
Description:  With the old coal bunkers and other structures to the north of the station knocked down, the Class 810 railbuses running services to Sazava and other outlying towns now sit in the open as they wait, and are easier to photography from the street.

Heavy Crane
Title:  Heavy Crane
Description:  I have also seen this heavy crane at Cercany at least once. Im assuming its not for wreck cleanup, since the boom doesnt look long or curved enough, but judging from the other cars in this consist Im assuming it was used for rails or prefabricated track.

Praha Masarykovo Nadrazi
Title:  Praha Masarykovo Nadrazi
Description:  Ive photographed Masarykovo Nadrazi many times before, but with my new cameraphone I decided to experiment a bit. This is the side entrance by the parking lot and Namesti Republiky Metro entrance.

Title:  Praha Masarykovo Nadrazi, Picture 2,
Description:  This is slightly in the previously shown entrance. Although Ive very carefuloy attempted this shot with the Pentax and the Nikon N80 before, Ive never been able to get an exposure this good because Ive never had fast enough film installed at the right time.

Praha Masarykovo Nadrazi, Picture 4,
Title:  Praha Masarykovo Nadrazi, Picture 4,
Description:  Although Masarykovo Nadrazi hasnt been given as much corridor upgrade work as many other stations, it is nevertheless getting a little bit of attention in the form of the new trainboard and whatever that scaffolding on the canopy is for. I expect that there will be more work soon, but what it will entail I dont know.

Crossing Near Slapy
Title:  Crossing Near Slapy
Description:  Later during the Slapy trip, we had to stop at this crossing. Regrettably, I dont remember where this was, as I consider this one of my favorite train photos this year. The location is made especially mysterious by the fact that the nearest electrified line to Slapy is the Prague-Ceske Budejovice mainline, which doesnt have too many City Elephants running on it yet.

Old Metro Train Builder Plate
Title:  Old Metro Train Builder Plate
Description:  This is the builder plate of the old Russian Metro train. While the Krylice may be hard to read if you dont know Russian, note that the date of construction was 1976, meaning that while this train is much older than whats running now, it wouldnt have been one of the original ones from 1974.

Old Metro Train in Haje
Title:  Old Metro Train in Haje
Description:  For the 35th anniversary of the Prague Metro (or at least some anniversary or another, as Ive looked up one source that claims the Metro started operations in 1974), DPP got their oldest Metro train out of storage to do some commemorativj runs, and miraculously, it seemed to make it through the day without being trashed, unlike a second-generation train on its recent last run. Being Russian-made, these trains were originally designed for the Moscow Metro, and similar trains can also be seen on the Budapest metro.

CD Class 814 at Night
Title:  CD Class 814 at Night
Description:  I took this as I was waiting for our train to board. The photo is too blurry to determine the train number (another limitation of the cameraphone), but Im assuming this is a Class 814 railbus, the 812 Class listed in earlier spotters guides being the prototype (although as far as I know several were built), and the 814 being the production model.

Ceska Trebova Trainboard
Title:  Ceska Trebova Trainboard
Description:  We were worried we might have to spend the night in Ceska Trebova before we even got there, with the only saving grace being that late April and early May in the Czech Republic isnt too nasty, and Nadrazi Ceska Trebova is heated anyway. In the end, though, two of the trains to Prague were so late that, in addition to eliciting stories from me about Amtrak, it enabled us to get to Prague in time to get some sleep, albeit after having to get the night bus.

Title:  Nadrazi Prelouc
Description:  This was taken after the train was already on the way to Lanskroun, where me and some of my friends were going to attend an outdoor festival for Carodejnice (more on this later). This was my first good shot out of the train window, at Prelouc.

Nadrazi Rudoltice v Cechach
Title:  Nadrazi Rudoltice v Cechach
Description:  This was Rudoltice, where we changed for yet another local to Lanskroun. Normally, this would not be the case, as at the vast majority of times its easier to get a direct local from Ceska Trebova to Lanskroun.

Pardubice Hlavni Nadrazi
Title:  Pardubice Hlavni Nadrazi
Description:  This was in Pardubice Hlavni Nadrazi. One thing that I learned while researching these captions is that Pardubice, contrary to what many people think, is in Bohemia, rather than Moravia, as only the Southeast of Pardubicky Kraj is actually in Moravia, meaning Brno, Olomouc, Zlin, Prerov, Vsetin, Prostejov, Trebic, Jihlava, Kromeriz, Znojmo, Ostrava, Frydek-Mistek, Sumperk, and Uhersky Brod.

Andel Metro
Title:  Andel Metro
Description:  Andel is one of the few stations thats been left completely in its Communist condition by the post-Communist government, with the exception of the name change, from Moskevska. These "bronzes," as Ive heard them called, survive, as well as a huge "Moskva Praha" sign at the Na Knizeci end, commemorating the "friendship" between Moscow and Prague. Each one of the bronzes commemorates a different aspect of the "friendship." This one simply says "Pratelstvi," or "Friendship."

Andel Metro, Picture 7
Title:  Andel Metro, Picture 7
Description:  This bronze appears to commemorate Vladimr Remek, the first Czech cosmonaut, who would have flown with the Soviets. Since there are two cosmonauts in this bronze, however, it isnt clear whether this is supposed to be Yuri Gagarin and Remek, or simply supposed to be about Soviet-Czech space cooperation generally.

Andel Metro, Picture 8
Title:  Andel Metro, Picture 8
Description:  This bronze is the most blatantly Communist one, with the hammer and sickle flag. In Communist Czechoslovakia 1948-1989, it was said to be not the Soviet flag, but the "Flag of the Czechoslovak Communist Party," and was flown over the Czech flag on flagpoles. People were never supposed to fly a Czech flag without flying a hammer and sickle above it, in fact, and if you had a sticky flag in your window it was the same situation. This latter practice can be seen in the movie "Kolya." Today, KSCM, the modern Czech Communist party, no longer flies this flag from their headquarters, but many of their (very old) activists still carry it at demonstrations and rallies.

Nadrazi Cercany Platform Construction
Title:  Nadrazi Cercany Platform Construction
Description:  My record indicate that I took this on May 15th, 2009, when the canopies were up and the concrete for platform itself was about to be poured. This is part of a larger project, seen in many of my other photos, to refurbish and modernise Nadrazi Cercany, along with the rest of the Prague-Ceske Budejovice corridor. It looks like the main station facilities may be moved south, judging from the position of the platform.

Schedule with F.A. Gerstner
Title:  Schedule with F.A. Gerstner
Description:  Browsing the schedule while waiting for my train, I discovered that one of the through trains is named for Franz Anton Ritter von Gerstner, who wrote the first comprehensive study of the American rail industry, "Die innern Communicationen, which he wrote during his travels in 1838-1839, dying before it could be published. His wife eventually published it in 1842, and it was reprinted in English some years ago. He is significant to Czech railway history because he was involved in building the Ceske Budejovice-Linz mainline.

Title:  Ex-CSD 354.195 at Nadrazi Dejvice
Description:  This&shot was pure luck. I was sitting in the beer garden at Nadrazi Dejvice with some friends when suddenly I heared a decellerating steam locomotive. I jumped up and started my camcorder, but my cameraphone responded sooner, and so I got this shot. This locomotive was ex-CSD #354195, built in 1925 by CMK.

Description:  This is a zoom and crop of Picture 1, giving some more detail, although still not enough to read the number. Cameraphones are pretty pathetic in this regard.

Title:  CD 111011-3
Description:  These Class 111 electrics are mainly used for switching in Praha Hlavni Nadrazi, although they turn up other places as well. Here #111011-3 was making up an express for either Linz or Vienna (Wien), I dont remember which.
