Almost exactly 24 hours after observing BDZ TP (Bulgarian State run Railway Freight Division) 46026 leaving from Sofias Iliyansti yard this Romanian constructed heavy weight is captured returning westbound on the sub-Balkan line at Kazanlak. Although a main line this route is predominantly single track and as a result regular pathing stops for freight workings have to be included into the schedule. This is clearly what is occurring here on 5th September 2022, as the crew wait to continue their journey westbound towards Karlovo and Pirdop. Destination point is unknown but it seems likely that the mixed consist of box wagons and tanks are heading for Iliyantsi.
