Kopanica

2-10-0 No. Ty45-379 storms away from Kopanica on the Wolsztyn to Sulechow line and heads for the next stop at Chwalim. The 15:52 departure from Wolsztyn was more likely to be worked by an Ol49 2-6-2, so it was a nice surprise to see it worked by this loco, the last operational survivor of a class of 448 built in the immediate post-war years. That said, the use of a 2-10-0 on a two coach local was quite common throughout central Europe.
