@Maciek JKD Jędrzejowska Commuter Railway (Narrow Gauge).
Another great, historical material from my colleague Andrzej Kornet, which I have the opportunity to publish on my channel (Andrzej went on vacation today, so keep quiet... I'm joking, of course :-)) I don't remember such maneuvers to this day...
First things first.
Behind today's event was my friend Wojciech from Szczecin (in the photo with a vegetable), the boss of all bosses, who came up with the idea of organizing annual handcar meetings on the Świętokrzyska Commuter Railway. It was also supposed to be the premiere of what was probably the first serial rickshaw-type bicycle trolleys he funded on Polish tracks.
Unfortunately, things slowed down a bit, both in terms of rickshaws and other registered participants of the event, of whom only a few made it. There were only three trolleys... there was no way that everyone could fit. But that's okay - the railway workers from Jędrzejów rose to the challenge and pulled out almost the entire rolling stock to make it available to quite numerous visitors throughout the day at the Jędrzejów Wąski station. All halls are also open to visitors, along with presentations of the operation of equipment for daily technical maintenance of the cable car.
Moreover, the railway workers spontaneously launched an emergency train to take the place of handcars to Umianowice free of charge to all those willing to have fun. During the journey, there were photo stops, crossing and exchange of wagons in Umianowice with the second special train with passengers from Pińczów! As if that wasn't enough, an additional surprise was the opportunity to travel by locomotive Lxd2-258 to Hajdaszek!!!
Despite the adversities, the event was a great success, all participants were very happy, including us - that we could help with all this!
The Drezyne Meetings organized periodically by my colleague Wojciech became a permanent part of the Jędrzejów-Ponidzia landscapes for the entire decade...
I know, it's a long introduction, but I still have a question for you - I have even more extensive material from my friend Bogdan, but unfortunately the quality is gelatinous - early - cellular. Should I post it too?? Please answer in the comments...
I invite you to watch the movie!!!
Andrzej - thanks, once again!
