The ŽSSKC 746 006-6 seen between Gašparovo and Bujakovo zastávka hauling a log-loaded manipulák (local shunting freight train)
We didn't plan taking a photo of the Manipulák (yet alone on a Saturday), but it was a pleasent surprise seeing it ready for departue at Gašparovo. e had just enough time to drive back to the nearest curve with a leve crossing and an acceptable direction of sunlight. This freight train often has duties all-year long, runs from Brezno to Telgárt, sometimes even Mlynky and often has loaded carriages on 4 or 5 stations ending up with a lot longer train. We didn't mind this short train of course. I really like taking photos of Slovakian freight trains, especially of the diesels in Central-Slovakia, you can have a look at some of my older photos if you'd like to:
