I had travelled with my mom to Krung Sri River hotel in Ayuttaya province. this hotel is a godsend: the 3-track main is right in front of it and you can walk to Ayuttaya railway station in just under 5 minutes. Now we go to the show, enjoy. Samples of SRT's signalling A boxcar sits on a spur. Daewoo Heavy Industry airconditoned diesel railcar (APN) slowing down for stop here
clearing a departure (Nong Khai-Bangkok Train) Anyone remember the C30-7? SRT ordered these little Cm22-7i. On the rough side, Loco no. 4535 got wrecked in a grade crossing incident resulting in bent carbody. a tank car being hauled back
there's more Hitachi diesel loco (we call them HID) they used to have 2900 ponies from 2 Cummins KTTA50L. now some HID begin to act like old GE C**-8, spewing thick black smoke from the stack. So they decided to derate them by removing 1 turbocharger.(KTTA50L is a twin turbo engine) Now they had 2250HP. BREL Class 158 (we call them affectionately as "Sprinter") Who said U-Boats are short-lived locos? 40 years and still hauling freight.
Very intresting photos Those signals look very familar to some in Europe, cant remember which country, I shall have to dig out my old photo albums.
Thanks for posting those pics, the white surround around the background of the signals was implemented in the UK a few years back to reduce SPADS (Signals passed at danger) It seems to be very effective in making the signal stand out.
