Sorry that I have not been on the board much recently. I have been switching jobs the last few weeks, which I have somehow allowed to take my time away from my armchair railfanning!
For those who are interested in some foreign stuff - here are two shots from a 1982 trip when I passed through Port Bou, Spain.
Railfanning at the same time that one is traveling with three non-railfans is an ugly proposition, and because of that I didn’t shoot anywhere what I should have on this trip. But Port Bou was one place I had to stop and grab some pictures. It is where the standard gauge French railroad meets up with the Iberic gauge (wide gauge) Spanish railroad.
First image is of a Spanish Class 276 (the one time fleet premiere) moving about the yard with a well dressed railroad employee moving towards it.

Second image is another Class 276, but with a long-distance train that has just arrived, with box cars on the head end.
