A relatively new facility on the southwestern outskirts of the Bulgarian capital Sofia is the Bozhurishte Container Terminal. Access is via the Voluyak to Bankya branch, the site constructed on the ever expanding Bozhuristhe industrial zone. PIMK Rail-TP Class 07 No. 07077 is captured on site prior to working a lunch-time departure the short distance to Voluyak where diesel will be swapped for electric motive power. The majority of containers in the consist and indeed on site are of those belonging to MAERSK and HAMBURG SUD. The overcast conditions of the 17th October 2023 provided the perfect opportunity to grab this shot looking due south into the compound.
