Hello everyone!
Much has happened over the past two years, and, as a result, tomorrow will be an historical day for the Railway Enthusiast panorama in Portugal!
A train composed of a Néz-Cassé Class 2600 locomotive and 9 Schindler coaches built in the late 1940's will do a trip around the Beiras Circuit, departing and arriving at Porto.
More than 400 passengers will make the 730km long journey, departing from Porto at 07:24, and with ETA at 19:48
This is not just a result of the railway company, CP - Comboios de Portugal, efforts to reestablished its historical fleet back to duty as an answer to its once failing service due to a lack of working rolling stock, but also the ever increasing support of the railway enthusiast community in Portugal and abroad regarding these kind of events.
For those joining the experience, hope for a fantastic journey.
For those awaiting on the trackside for photos and videos, stay sharp!
And for those who didn't have an opportunity to tag along with this event, this is just the beginning.
