I visited Zadar railway station in Croatia in 2023 to check out some Croatian trains Hrvatske željeznice (HŽ). However what I found at the railway station really surprised me. Check out what I saw, and learn about Europe's first aluminium train, the aluminium multiple diesel electric motor unit Series 611 manufactured by Zagreb Railway Work.

Some footage of diesel locomotive 37 403 "Isle of Mull" and Caledonian Railway steam locomotive number 419. Both at Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway today, 3rd January 2023. All footage my own. 37403 "Isle of Mull" is a British Rail Class 37 diesel-electric locomotive that was built by English Electric in 1960. It was used by British Rail for passenger and freight service, and it was later sold to a private operator. The locomotive has been preserved and is currently being used for heritage railway operations in Scotland. It has appeared in several television shows and films, including the popular Scottish soap opera "Take the High Road". It is currently owned by the Scottish Railway Preservation Society, which works to preserve and restore historic railway vehicles in Scotland. The Class 37 locomotives were one of the most successful and longest-serving locomotives in the British Rail fleet. They were used for a variety of duties including passenger and freight service, and they were known for their reliability and versatility. Many of them are still in use today on the heritage railway scene. 37403 "Isle of Mull" is one of these historic locomotives, and it has played an important role in the preservation of the railway heritage in Scotland. The Caledonian Railways 0-4-4 No. 419 is a historic steam locomotive that has played an important role in the development of the railway system in Scotland. It was built in 1924, at a time when steam locomotives were the primary means of traction for trains in the United Kingdom. The locomotive was designed and built by the North British Locomotive Company, one of the most prominent manufacturers of steam locomotives in Scotland. It was used by the Caledonian Railways, a major railway company in Scotland, for passenger and freight service. In 1948, the Caledonian Railways was merged into the London, Midland, and Scottish Railway, and No. 419 continued to be used for service until it was retired in 1964. After its retirement, No. 419 was preserved by the Scottish Railway Preservation Society, a group dedicated to preserving and restoring historic steam locomotives. The locomotive was restored to working order, and it has been used for heritage railway operations in Scotland. Today, No. 419 is an important part of Scotland's railway heritage, and it is a popular attraction on the heritage railway scene.

The Stacja Muzeum in the former Warsaw Główna PKP railway terminus is a great, but small museum with some great locomotives on display. In addition they have an extensive number of models (not shown in this video). As the museum is very close to the Warszawa Ochota railway station, a visit is well worth it when you're in Warsaw. Find out more about the museum from their website: https://stacjamuzeum.pl/en/ This video is a slide show of photographs of locomotives on display when I visited in April 2017. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZcbCIYi2fI
