BDZ PP (Bulgarian State run Railway Passenger Division) Skoda 44-144 heads towards the capital on 22nd June 2017, with an express train service from Varna to Sofia. This mid-afternoon scene at Kumaritsa depicts a locomotive that has a bit of a history having survived three series incidents, two crashes and a fire. Apparently this locomotive is not popular with the drivers as following reconstruction it's electrical systems differ from the those to the rest of the Skoda 68E fleet. A survivor for sure!.
