We
have Mariuta again today as the Reşiţa is out of
service. Shame - that grew to be my favourite |

I'm
traveling in the relative luxury of the railcar cab today. Screw
handbrake is green, forward/reverse lever is behind it, left
foot on clutch pedal, accelerator is in his left hand by the
wall, and the gearlever is sticking out from the wall, behind
which is a diesel engine. Not sure what the knobbed lever is far
right of the picture. Turn signals perhaps. |

Its
hokey, but it works |
