Haifa Central

I didn't expect an Eastern Med cruise to provide many railway opportunities but the ship berthed alongside the main line in Haifa where there is a very frequent passenger service and plenty of freight movement, except on the Sabbath. Israel Railways No.733 approaches Haifa Central with a push pull service for Tel-Aviv, formed of Swiss built double deck stock. The loco, one of a class of fifty eight, was built by Alstom in Valencia and the similarities with the EWS Class 67 were immediately apparent.
