Welcome to "Phil's Loco Photos"

A nine day trip to Spain and Portugal. After travelling north from Faro to Lisboa the first few days were based at Setúbal and then went in a hire car chasing freights in various locations which included Terrim, Agualva Junction, Aguas de Moura, Mourisca-Sado, Vale Vidal, Azinheira dos Barros, Bairro do Cadocas, Azinheira dos Barros and Canal Caveira. We then drove to Entroncamento and did photo spots at Casal do Laranjeiro, Fagulhos and Bezelga. I them made my way to Spain to cover the new high-speed line from Ourense - Santiago de Compostela and A Coruña while it was available with diesel traction. On my last day I travelled the brand new high-speed line from Madrid - Valencia which was a fascinating journey reaching 302 km/h
