Bulgarian State Railways Class 16.01 departing with a loud salute after a special tourist train at Ruse Station. Here you can very clearly hear the blare of the unique five chimes steam whistle. In Europe, only the Bulgarian steam locomotives use this type of steam whistle. A BDZ Class 44 electric locomotive is pulling the entire train thus saving water and coal, and allowing 16.01's crew to take a little rest after the long working day. The guys head back to Gorna Oryahovitza depot to prepare for the next day's tourist service with engine 03.12.
