Below: the park in Jeziorki, many people making the most of the bridge-day between a public holiday and the weekend.
Warm wind from the south means that planes taking ofp from Okęcie are doing so into the wind. Below: a Polish Air Force CASA C-295 transport.
Below: new development of houses close to the railway line, just south of Warsaw's border, Nowa Wola/Zgorzała. Now all the new home-owners need is an asphalt road to get them out of here.
Below: some interesting trains passed through... A Bombardier TRAXX in ITL livery hauling containerised cisterns and containers approaches the 'down' platform at W-wa Jeziorki... ITL has but two such locos, and they are rarely seen on Polish rails.
Below: ...and coming the other way, an EU07 pulls a short rake of two passenger coaches forming the TLK Połoniny service from Przemysł to Warsaw via Jarosław, Sandomierz and Radom (and a whole lot more places along the way) through W-wa Jeziorki.
Below: the two trains pass each other
Below: a more usual sight - a laden coal train headed by an ET22 loco on its way from the coal fields to the marshalling yard at Okęcie, from where it will be diesel-hauled down to Siekierki on the non-electrified line (the left of the frame here).
Below: the viaduct taking ul. Karczunkowska over the railway line - no work on 1 November, but back at it today. Ready by this time next year?
Below: All Saints, memento mori - in particular here a local pedestrian hit by a car, ul. Karczunkowska. Pavements save lives.
The weather is due to break, ten degrees colder and rain. Glad I made the most of both days!
