Photographer’s Note
Danish Railways got a lot of problems these years – their new generation of trains should have been delivered by now but there’s problem with the production. The rail-lines need repair for several mill euros and many people must wait for the train every day.
I was about to send some family with the train when a nostalgic look arrived on the opposite platform – the “Silver arrow” which was one the first train I used as teenager – bad people called it “the Tinfoil express” due to its silver paint ;-). I guess the spectator wanted a view of the 1100 horsepower diesel engine. I had to use a tight crop due to

Hi Jeppe:
Curiosity it´s nice quality so I like this photo as much as I like this "Silver arrow", in fact I like the design of those trains more than the actual high speed one. I love how the red letters works over the silver background. Very interesting shot.

Hi Jeppe
Good inclusion of the man peering inside the window. Excellent sharpness & nice prominence of the 'DSB' logo. Tfs!

Hi Jeppe.
I like this view of this vintage looking train which was probably looking very modern at its beginning and which is now quite a museum piece, with a diesel engine!
Is DSB the name of the Danish railway company?
Interesting document, and as often in your album nice humoristic treatment, for the 'letter i'.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Jeppe, nice to see you around again. A fun and witty observation you made here, with the person peeking inside providing a fourth letter for the writing on the outside of the silver train car. Good framing/cropping to play on the graphical aspect of this subject, and crisp details all over.
