ŽFBH electric locomotive 441-411 has just backed onto train 397, Zagreb to Ploce via Sarajevo, at Doboj on 22 August 2003 - and is just lowering its pantograph. Doboj is where through trains across Bosnia-Hercegovina change locomotives from ŽRS to ŽFBH. Note that 441-411 is still showing itself as belonging to ŽBH, the former name of ŽFBH.Previous | NextŽRS locomotive 212 019-4 has just arrived at Doboj on a local service from Petrovo Novo on 24 August 2003. Apart from painting the company name on it, not much seems to have changed since this loco was working in Germany - it is still showing as being as allocated to Darmstadt shed.
