Winter returned for a morning

Yesterday morning, earlyish start - and this...

Out on ul. Karczunkowska, Trombity bus stop. Snow coming in horizontally from the east. I make my train in good time, trudging through mud churned in with snow on the temporary path to W-wa Jeziorki station. Temperature: +1C, wind gusting to 35kmh.

Heading into town, I catch the 07:55 train which has come from Czachówek Południowy, change at W-wa Zachodnia (below). A dear old three-windscreened EN57. One of the last.


Below: A little deja vu thing... By the Hard Rock Cafe, Złote Tarasy.


Veturilo hire bikes standing a bit idle; far from ideal cycling weather.


Outside the InterContinental hotel, even posh cars get snowed on


And on to my destination, Rondo ONZ 1, which afforded good views of a city under wet snow


By the afternoon, the snow had gone. A good thing. Here's a Chausson APH 48 'Pig Snout' outside the Palace of Culture.


This classic bus, the only one in existence in Poland, served Warsaw in the immediate post-war years, to be replaced by the more modern Chaussons in the late 1950s.
