NIM Express Carriages Bound For Velim

On 20 January 2017 the first, shortened rake of NIM Express carriages left the Škoda Transportation Plzeň factory bound for VUZ Velim test centre. The photos, the first taken on the AWT siding and the second at the freight yard adjacent to Plzeň hl. n., show this rake, formed of four double deck carriages, 70 80 86-94 002-8, 70 80 26-94 002-1, 70 80 26-94 001-3 and 70 80 26-94 026-0, en route to Velim, where a series of tests using DB Regio’s future Class 102 electrics will take place.
