Паровоз Гр-319 с поездом / Steam locomotive Gr-319 with a train

Yes it is Estonian but it is mainly used in Latvian narrow gauge railway in Gulbene - Aluksne line. You can see the 2016 timetable here: http://www.banitis.lv/pdf/events/schedule_eng.pdf
Restoration of the Gr-319 steam engine started in 2007 being undertaken by the specialists of “Gulbene-Alūksne banitis” Ltd., with the assistance of volunteers and with sponsorship from the railway companies “Latvijas dzelzcels”, “Ritosa sastava serviss” and “LDZ Cargo”.
Regarding the history of steam engine Gr-319, she was built to the order of the USSR in the former “Orenstein & Koppel factory” – in Babelsberg (Eastern Germany) in 1951. She was used in Latvia serving narrow gauge lines from Liepaja railway junction until 1964, and moved to Ukraine afterwards. The last workplace of this machine was Vapnjarka depot in Ukraine, from where she was collected in 1990 by Estonian railway enthusiasts and transported to the Lavassaare railway museum located near to Parnu. Finally thanks to long term cooperation between “Gulbene-Alūksne banitis” Ltd. and the Lavassaare museum Gr-319 came to Gulbene for restoration in 2007.
The newly restored steam engine will be used on the Gulbene-Alūksne narrow gauge railway (or “Banitis”), which is a listed industrial heritage site and the most popular tourist attraction in the Vidzeme region. Moreover “Banitis” is the only operational narrow gauge railway in the Baltic countries with regular passenger services between two district centres. |

U S military equipment / Военная техника США

The date was 2015.04.25. This equipment was participating in the practice called "Flaming thunder 2015". The practice ended already in Friday (2015.04.24). I believe that military men are using air transport. All equipment was secured by the military police till the departure from the station. As I see in the drivers cab there is one more person sitting with a safety vest and probably he is leading the equipment till the destination point. |

Sun was only rising. For this reason there were no chances to make a video from sun side without my shadow. Thanks, Theo Kojak. |
