Björkliden

Dm3 1201-1231-1202 "Kunigunda" enters Björkliden at good speed with an empty train on a particularly rainy day.

The all-welded track is new and is in excellent condition, which can be heard on the clip at http://web.telia.com/~u77503725/mp3/Bln1.MP3 (MP3 file approx 700k). The train approaches the station at good speed - Dm3 trains with empty trains are allowed a maximum speed of 70 kph whereas the loaded are limited to 50 kph only. Note the slammer at the end of the clip - a characteristic sound when the brakes are applied in a long train...
