Nice that you could walk onto the bridge approach for this view. It would be utterly taboo in the US these days.

@Maersk.146 I was the driver of the freight train and I was waiting for the high-speed train to pass to continue the ride because the 2 lines are converging

I was going to say, there doesn't look like a lot of room between you and the freight train! B ut if your the driver then the train obviously wasn't moving!

@Kempy72 I take my photos without risk for me! if I get off the locomotive obviously the train is totally braked and ever under my direct control

@benf
Wow, that's cool! Do you get opportunities to drive the passenger trains, also?

@Maersk.146 no... Cargo (Captrain) from 2011 to 2018. Now only regional train...

Very marvelous story! Good photo!
