Mezdra-based SKODA 68E No. 45-183 rolls into Iliyantsi from the north on 11th October 2023. Having run south through the Iskar Gorge ordinary service ORD 20112 departed Vraca for Sofia at 14:15 and now in this view is just two stations away from journey's end. The road bridge in the background carries the capitals new northern by-pass for east/westbound traffic reducing the time from one side of the city to the other to just 30 minutes. A major advantage to the railway photographer it has to be said!.
