Class 593 DMU (593.059/060), now operated by FGC on Lerida-La Pobla de Segur. On that day, the operation of that (quite much derelict) branch line was handed over to FGC. This unit will remain vested in RENFE-Regionales for some time. Yet, it has already lost its RENFE logo, and is to go through a light overhaul soon, with a new livery, in line with FGC corporate identity. Lerida-Pirineos/Lleida-Pirineús. 4th January 2005.
