What does a metal plant need to keep it running 24 hours over the clock? Thousands of tons of coal and ore! This is the case with the Kremikovtsi plant and the reason why freight trains bound for the plant start from the port of Burgas from the early morning until the late afternoon. In the photo is locomotive 46 009.7 with an ore train ready to leave the train terminal of the port on 24 September 2005.
