Roundnoses still ply the rails in Kosovo. On 26 August 2009 Kosovo Railways 008 (ex-NSB Di.3 643) ran an empty nickel ore train from Drenas to Magura (near Kosovo Polje) at V. Belacevac on 26 August 2009.
Also 005 and 007 are operational and take turns on passenger trains between Kosovo Polje and Hani i Elezit/Deneral Jankovic and sometimes between Pristina and Pec if a Y1 motor car is defect. Sometimes they also work
freight trains, preferably between Kosovo Polje and Hani i Elezit/Deneral Jankovic. This time a Nohab had to be used for the nickel ore trains as one of the Class 661 locomotives had to rescue a stranded Y1 motor car.

In 1984 I started taking pictures of trains in the Netherlands. In more recent years I grew
fond of the bulldog nose GM locomotives for which topic I still travel around the world.
On my pages I will show you some themes with a strong accent on the GM bulldog nose units.
What you also can find in the themes section are montly photo galleries of my most recent taken pictures and the koalas site of my girlfriend Henrike. Of course, both our hobbies (round noses) cross each other in Australia and some other countries.
Below you find two pictures of me in action during setting up the Dutch private railway companies Lovers Rail (now part of Veolia Transport), ShortLines (now part of Veolia Cargo) and ERS Railways (now fully Maersk owned):
And these are the countries which I have visited so far (5 February 2006, 19% of all countries on our planet):
