I have just returned from a visit to Bratislava in Slovakia. I was amazed at the amount of loco hauled trains at the main station (Hlavna Stanica in Slovakian). Traffic is in the hands of locos dating from the 1960s onwards. I had no problems with photography and railway stafff were friendly.
Bratislava is easily reached from the UK with Ryanair operating from quite a few local UK airports. There is a bus from the airport to the main station every 20 minutes and the journey takes around 20-25 minutes. Fare is about 60 pence. You can be on the station plaforms in under an hour from arriving at the airport!
Some ideas of what can be seen are shown in this gallery :-
