Here was the farewell view as we departed Petrovice, across the border into Poland. From this point onward, it started to get dark, although I did take SLIDES, which aren't going to be displayed on Flickr until they make it into an NRHS show.

Not all Czech and Polish trains are rundown vandalised junkers. The international trains, in particular, are generally kept up, and this is a Polish example operated by ICC, a contractor for PKP, the Polish Railway (If I'm wrong on this then someone correct me).

This was the destination board on the Polonia, and so given its exoticism by my standards I snapped a shot while we were still waiting to depart.

Here was my change, which had to be done on foot across the tracks, and quite frantically at that. The foreigners' police almost stopped us, too, but let us continue when they saw our papers. In the end the change wasn't as sloppy as it could have been.
