T448Ps from the PTKiGK Rybnik fleet

 

PTKiGK Rybnik was the successor of former ‘sand railway’, founded in 1966 to transport filling materials from sand pits to collieries. Privatized in 1993, it was taken over by PCC Rail in 2008 and merged into DB Schenker in 2010 as the Polish division of the German operator. The company operated several types of diesel locomotives, including a considerable number of T448Ps. These photos from my collection were all taken by Mariusz Ni¿yniec at the Jankowice colliery in Upper Silesia (unless otherwise indicated).
