I headed for the small town of Leonding near Linz in order to capture the Nizza – Moscow Express. Although it was a cloudy day and almost freezing the chance of getting a nice shot of a train that comes through only once a week I was in a good mood. Well, the composition never showed up. Instead a very common and boring “West Bahn” bi-level MU passed by at the scheduled time- “what the heck….?!?” Anyways, even on a Sunday, traffic is busy on the western mainline of Austria and I got a good deal out of watching all the other trains. Finally the clouds gave way to the setting sun and I took the chance to take a picture of an ICE train approaching Linz.
