TTR3 Pendolino cab ride+

We travel through the drivers on the 0930 S220 service from Helsinki. The weather in Helsinki ia a little overcast but by the time we reach Espoo, ten miles out, we are in bright Nordic sunshine which we enjoy for the resst of our journey to Turku. On the run to the half way point at Jarja/Karis we pass freight and commuter trains, high speed passenger trains pulled by the Finnish derivative of the Swiss LOK 2000 oe RE 460 locomotive. Beyond Karis the pace hots up and we sail through beautiful countryside, and take sweeping reverse curves at 200kph. In places the view from the cab is positively breathtaking!
