After heavy thunderstorms, electric locomotive Da #888 of the Swedish State Railways SJ (Statens Järnvägar) is pulling a special "dinner train" bound for Kiruna. On the occasion of the 120-year anniversary of the iron ore line "Malmbanan", the Swedish railway museum together with LKAB iron ore mining company ran several historical trains between June 30 and July 4 2022. This electric locomotive was built by ASEA and delivered to Kiruna in July 1955. It has a power output of 1,840 kW (2,470 hp). It now belongs to the Swedish railway museum in Gävle.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
For the train and storm chaser. Trains with thunderstorms, dark clouds, rain, lightning, hurricanes - tropical storms, funnel clouds, storm light, rainbows, and snow storms.
