German-built Henschel Class 75 No. 75009 reaches the summit of the Rhodope Mountain Railway at Avramovo on 20th September 2022. Out of the original ten locomotives constructed for the narrow gauge line in 1965 just five examples remain, 75004/005/006/008 and 75009. In addition 75002 is held in long term storage and is most likely being used as a spares donor to keep the remaining examples serviceable. Looking very clean and tidy 75009 is captured with a seven coach consist that forms the FAST 1662 (14:40) Dobrinishte to Septemvri service.
