WLABdimnu 69 51 70-80 400-6. A view of the SUW2000 bogie - while the
general layout reminds of the Fiat Eurofima bogies, the wheelsets
are a new development for automatic gauge changing between Poland
and ex-Soviet networks.

If you look closely you will see the biggest disadvantage - 26°C temperature (which rose to 27°C during the night), the thermostat of the air conditioner was obviously broken. 2010-05-06. tobias b köhler |
