Smalspårsjärnvägen Hultsfred-Västervik

            Durch Zufall kamen wir auf der Reise durch Schweden zu einem Stellplatz in Tuna an dem eine Schmalspurbahn vorbeiführte und noch mehr Zufall war es das am nächsten Tag dort Museumsverkehr stattfand. Also hieß es morgens früh aus den Federn um den Zug auf der Hinfahrt von Västervik nach Hultsfred zu erwischen. So entstand dann dieses Foto von den beiden Triebwagen der Baureihe YCo5p mit den Nummern 888 und 897 bei der Einfahrt in den Bahnhof Tuna. 
Die Bahnstrecke Hultsfred–Västervik ist eine 1879 eröffnete Schmalspurbahn (Spurweite 891 mm entspr. drei schwedischen Fuß) in der schwedischen Provinz Kalmar län. Die 71 Kilometer lange Strecke verbindet den Ort Hultsfred mit der Hafenstadt Västervik. Der planmäßige Personenverkehr wurde 1984 stillgelegt. Seit 1987 findet mit Unterbrechungen Saison- und Museumsverkehr statt. Die Strecke war die letzte von der staatlichen Eisenbahngesellschaft SJ betriebene Schmalspurbahn und zugleich die erste schwedische Eisenbahnstrecke, die unter Denkmalschutz gestellt wurde.

By chance, while traveling through Sweden, we came to a parking space in Tuna where a narrow-gauge railway ran past and it was even more coincidental that there was museum traffic there the next day. So we had to get up early in the morning to catch the train on the way from Västervik to Hultsfred. This is how this photo was taken of the two YCo5p series railcars with the numbers 888 and 897 entering Tuna station.
The Hultsfred – Västervik railway is a narrow-gauge railway opened in 1879 (gauge 891 mm, equivalent to three Swedish feet) in the Swedish province of Kalmar län. The 71 kilometer long route connects the town of Hultsfred with the port city of Västervik. Scheduled passenger traffic was shut down in 1984. Seasonal and museum traffic has taken place intermittently since 1987. The line was the last narrow-gauge railway operated by the state railway company SJ and at the same time the first Swedish railway line to be placed under monument protection.
