Rail Pictures, Railway Photos, Trains from August 2026

413 Photos
August 2026 was characterized by a strong focus on railway activity in and around Antwerp, with multiple freight and infrastructure trains documented along line 27A near Antwerp Airport, including locomotives from Lineas, Infrabel, Medway, Europorte, and DB Cargo. Repeated appearances of the modern Bombardier Traxx F140 MS and NMBS Class 13 locomotives highlighted their prominence in Belgian cross-border freight services. Blonay remained a central location for Swiss railway enthusiasts, featuring several CEV MVR GTW ABeh 2/6 units and ongoing model railway activity with classic Z-scale trains such as the Märklin mini club SBB Ae 3/6 10460. The Sächsisches Eisenbahnmuseum Chemnitz-Hilbersdorf hosted its 33rd Heizhausfest, with a loco parade and depot scenes involving notable steam and diesel locomotives like 91 896, 80 023, and ex-DR Taiga Drum 120 269. Weather conditions were varied, with several events taking place on grey or rainy days, notably at Chemnitz-Hilbersdorf and Hoorn. Historic and modern EMUs from NMBS, such as MS75 and MS80-83 classes, were captured operating between Lier and Antwerp. The motif of railway festivals and open weekends persisted, with references to steam events in Switzerland and Germany. Model railways and heritage operations provided a further layer of variety, showcasing both miniature and full-size preserved rolling stock. EU label: AI-generated content
