M44 052, the days first loco, after running-round at Szerencs.

No, not the railtour - various cranks took part in a move up the line using a service train, seen here departing Szerencs. They picked up the tour a little further on.

A final bonus for those who wanted it - after a stock release Nohab M61 006 backed on to take the stock back to the museum depot. Passengers were allowed to ride the ECS if they wished...and many did!

End of the ECS move as far as the tour participants were concerned.
