Remarks & Notes

Salt Baskunchak lake. Salt mining (open method). Train with cars for salt moves to mining place. Cars in manufacturing are covered by growths of salt very quickly, especially the wheels and undercarriage. So cars become unusable very frequently and are replaced here 1-2 times per year. Here you can see the whole salt train.
