ZSSK 131 085 + 086 / Ratkovo Šútovo – Krpeľany

Having managed to take a good photo of the IC 522 at this spot, we decided to stay there until sunset. In the meantime, a few ZSSK Class 661 multiple units passed over the embankment, but there were no freight trains. An hour after the InterCity, when the first shadows were already falling across the tracks behind us, a freight train could be seen in the distance. To our great delight, we were able to photograph the vintage-painted double-unit locomotive 131 085 + 086 hauling a RockTainer block train on its journey towards Žilina. A few minutes later, the entire embankment was in shadow and, after a short but very successful photography trip in Slovakia, we set off on our journey home.
