[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Some of the Hajdu towns are connected with Debrecen (and there with the international railway net) by this 68 km long branch line. Since in the last decades the main traffic has moved to roads the small train on the picture is more than enough to meet the demands.
Diesel trains of Bzmot class were built in Czechoslovakia from 1973 till 1984 by Tatra Works. Hungarian Railways purchased 205 items now serving as main vehicles on branch lines. The original 141 kW Skoda engines were then replaced with more powerful Rába-MAN engines and also the hydro-mechanical gears were changed for those from Voith. (Yes, the same Voith that manufactured Ulf's generators here .)
As a consequence of the modernization the maximal allowed speed has been increased from 70 to 80 km/h.
In the last years there has been heated debates on closure of branch lines producing enormous loss.
In the WS you can find another shot of the train.

Chissŕ cosa avrŕ pensato il macchinista del treno quando ti ha visto fare le fotografie. Bella immagine, molto nitida e con una luce giusta, accompagnata da un bel cielo sullo sfondo. Interessanti le note che fanno capire la tua buona conoscenza in fatto di treni. Complimenti.
Ciao e buona settimana
Paolo.

Un tres beau image, Laszlo, d'un train qui entre dans la photo. Tu as eu un bon moment et lumiere, avec un ciel seduisant et ton Nikon a su materialiser ton idee. Elle me plait beaucoup cette photo (ainsi que la precedante). Meilleurs amities,

Branko

Laszlo,
This is a great photo of this train. The sharpness is outstanding showing the faces of the engineers with perfect clarity. The lighting and colors are great here as well. Your composition is excellent creating a diagonal through the photo showing good depth and direction.

Asa

Hello Lazlo,
Great photo of this train entering the photo. You could also see the faces of the drivers! A little girl in the middle? Nice POV, colors, and saturation. Great clouds & sky. The trees on the left give a very nice balance to the photo. Great timing. Well done. Regards. Latiff.

Ciao Laszlo,
sembra di vedere una foto dei tempi dell'unione sovietica e leggendo la nota se ne ha la conferma .
Mi sono permesso di fare un WS per dare ancora di piu' il senso dell'antico spero ti piaccia .
Giorgio

Hi Laszlo,
Great shot of the train approaching. Nicely taken. A very informative note as well.
Well done,
Shaeri

Szia Laszlo,
netter Link auf mein Bild durch den gemeinsamen Maschinenbauer. Die Komposition gefällt mir bis auf den etwas engen Schnitt am rechten Rand, etwas Himmel rechts der Bahn wäre gut in meinen Augen. Sonst gute Tiefe mit Perspektive und die Gleise laufen schön in die Bildecke. Schade, dass die Farben der Bahn etwas stumpf sind, aber das ist einfach das Alter denke ich. Ähnliche Fahrzeuge sind auch hier noch im Einsatz, sind aber mehr in der Ablösung durch moderne, um den Anforderungen im Verkehr besser gerecht zu werden. Klares und deutliches Bild.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Szia Laci!
Remek kis képecske! Nagyon tetszenek a színek (az ég kékje lehetne kicsit erősebb) és a fények is, minden együtt van egy jó képhez.
Csak azt sajnálom, hogy nem hagytál helyet a vonat után, ezt próbáltam meg megoldani egy ws-ban, remélem nem bánod!
Jó hétvégét! Üdv,
Marci

Hello Laszlo,
the coming train is well captured with a lot of light to fall in front of it.The colour is well managed as the sharpness and the clarity of the scene.Informative your note too.

Szia Laci,
nagyon jó mínőségű fotót készítettél erről a most már történelminek is tekinthető vonatról. A jegyzeted pedig tökéletesen egészíti ki a látottakat. Ami a WS-okat illeti a Marci kíváló rekonstruálásan kívül, nagyon tetszik és talán még a fentinél is jobban, az ahol a szerelvény kisebb és több teret hagy a környezetnek még az oszloppal és kábelekkel együtt is, mely "vasutas" fotóknak szinte mindig szerves része.
Gratula és kellemes estét kívánok!
Attila
