The lumber could have been brought from the sawmill yard at Lenti or directly from the loading area at Szilvágy, but in fact the photo was taken during a photo charter in 2020.

Is it Kodachrome? Unfortunately, just a digital redo, and not even good.

The current main line to Kistolmács is in the background and we are going on to Bánokszentgyörgy with our trains.

This part of the network is visited by freight trains only, so at this point our passenger train is the exotic one standing out.

The photo emphasizes the silence, darkness and secrecy of the forest.

This branch never sees forestry traffic as it was built for the construction of the oil wells in the area. This traffic became zero many years before, so nowadays only passenger trains come this way. I have many other photos of class C50 narrow-gauge locomotives from other forest railways in Hungary:

The line is being entirely rebuilt so that passenger trains can go that way too.

This photo train just produced this many images. It was a huge blast in person that I am really grateful for. In the meantime I would like to recommend my other photos of the line:

I also have photos of the winter freight operations that I am going to upload as soon as my time allows it.
