T478-1002 was one of the prototypes of later class 751 and had somewhat more rounded cabs, earning her the nickname Bardotka (after the French actress Brigitte Bardot -who might have find reason for annoyment being compared to a Diesellocomotive) and has survived and resides now at the railway museum of Luzna u Rakovnika. There she stands on 13 May 2012.

After all the shunting is done and a massive extra return train to Germany has gone, a perhaps little sad ease descents on Benesov u Prahy on 21 September 2026. Another big train bonanza, organised by Steam Story Agence, has come to an end. perhaps a rather definitive end sice from 1 January 2027 the Czech railways have upped their game with the installation of ECTS on their main lines.

On Monday 21 September 20267 the big (and possibly last) retro train bonanza in and around Benesov u Prahy is over. Most specials have returned home the Sunday evening before, but one massive haul is still to be done: EBS 142 001 (the strongers of all Ludmillas) and slightly weaker juniory sister 132 334 will haul Swiss/Franch steamer 241A65, some Swioss and German coaches and steamer 41 1144 from Benesov u Prahy, where this picture is taken, to Weimar.
The Sun has got up ans shines on local hero T478-2006 that will haul out the EBS six-axle Ludmilla Diesel locomotives out of the depot kicking off a delightful hour of shunting operations.
