At the end of a beautiful mountain climb which on a heavy load would undoubtedly have taxed 'Britannia' but load 3 certainly didn't, 87004-8 runs round its train at Sabotkovitzi. Judging by the state of the trackwork, this vast expanse of yard hasn't seen any kind of train other than the unit operated passenger service for a good number of years and is the last thing you'd expect to find at the end of such a convoluted bit of railway!
