Class 810 railbuses provide the
services on many rural branch lines in the Czech Republic and
Slovakia (and in Hungary, where they are classed as Bzmot). 810.259
is seen approaching Kořenov station, working the 19.10 Harrachov
to Tanvald on 6 August 1998. On this line the steep gradient
out of Tanvald is equipped with a rack rail, but this is no longer
used. |

113.001 stands at Bechyně on 7
August 1998, with an evening service to Tábor. The Bechynĕ
branch has a d.c. electrification system, whereas the main line
at Tábor is a.c., which means that the Class 113 locomotives
are confined to the branch. |

705.906 negotiates the overgrown
tracks at Blažejov, with the 10.13 Nová Bystřice to Jindřichův
Hradec on 8 August 1998. This narrow-gauge line, in a popular
holiday area near the Austrian border, has steam trains in summer. |
