BDZ locomotive 43-516-4 with a long freight train pausing in the station of Yambol. The locomotive waits for a few cars at the back to be rearranged and will continue its trip in about 5 minutes. Some of the cars in the train are destined for Burgas. Amongst them are a number of tank cars of the LukOil company that owns the oil refinery in Burgas. Some cars, however, have Varna as their final destination and will have to be detached from this train. Most probably this locomotive will finish the trip to Burgas and another one will take over somewhere between Zimnitsa and Karnobat to lead the cars bound for Varna.
