In this gallery I am going to present to you my photo trip at the first weekend of February, 2023, during severe snowing. Already on Friday it was visible that it was going to snow at many areas, especially in Slovakia. It also showed that even traffic could be affected by the snowstorms. At about this time I noticed that a steam-powered charter train was planned in the Low Tatras for Saturday, so I quickly made a plan: Friday afternoon I would drive to Banská Bystrica, and on Saturday I would follow the steam train. On the way there I stopped at the snow-covered Nógrád station to take a photo of the 1990s mixed-colour Bzmot trainset.

The trains departed from Slovenská L'upča in the morning, which is the first station of the Banská Bystrica - Margecany railway.

The ŽSSKC 736 021-7 diesel-electric shunter seen at Podbrezová station Photographed by: Takács Bence Captured at: 2023:02:04 09:12:06 Tags: Zólyombrézó Podbrezová 372 374 736

The Banská Bystrica - Podbrezová railway was built by the Hungarian State Railways and opened on 26 July, 1884. The line was owned by the Podbrezová steel mill but operated by MÁV. The shunter in the picture is also heading to serve the steel mill, though they only process scrap metal nowadays.

The ČSD Aa 29-40 007-6 first class passenger car seen at Podbrezová Photographed by: Takács Bence Captured at: 2023:02:04 09:16:34 Tags: Slovakian railways

The 29-40 middle numbers indicate a second class car, but this UIC-Y type car has 9 windows, as a first class car should have. In 1993, when the cars were assigned to ŽSR, many were denoted to second class, and later one such car was used to create this historic car. It wasn't recertified.
