And I looked, and behold a pale horse...

...and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

ST44-1230 leaves Kościerzyna towards Lipusz as the light engine train LSS 555036 from the PKP Cargo depot in Bydgoszcz Wschód Towarowa. It would later pick up a set of empty cement wagons and bring them to Bydgoszcz, for further shipping to Działoszyn.

Here it's worth showing a simmilar picture which my dad had taken 18 years ago in almost the very same spot: flic.kr/p/2oghCwo.

Not much has changed since then, but the station is Kościerzyna is due to be subject to a huge modernisation project, which is supposed to include it in the commuter network of the tricity. This means that the famous old coal mainline will be electrified and the mechanical semaphore signals will be a thing of the past, which is why I so obsessively visit this place.
