  Avskedsresa till Tibro – Farewell trip to Tibro  (Order # TAM04)
The Swedish railcar club arranged a farewell trip on the Karlsborg line between Skövde and Tibro in November of 2006. It was supposed to be the last chance to ride the line before it was to be closed.

The Swedish railcar club (SMoK) arranged a farewell trip on the Karlsborg line between Skövde and Tibro a grey and cold day in November of 2006.
   The Karlsborg line had long been in risk of closure. SJ (the state railway) ceased with passenger service on the line 1986 and with freight service 1993. After that there have been some private freight trains. The section between Tibro and Karlsborg was closed as early as 2003.  The fall of 2006 Banverket (Swedish rail administration) announced that they were going to close the line down and cease with all maintenance.
   SMoK (the Swedish railcar club) then decided to arrange a farewell day with special trains between Skövde and Tibro. The trips were made by the clubs railcars class Y6. In the film we follow the trips from the train and from the side of the track. Many scenes are from the inside of the railcars so much of the line is seen.
   The line wasn't closed as planed. 2007 there was some other specials. When the last train goes down the line is yet to be seen.

 

The DVD is subtitled in Swedish and English. Swedish narration, cover and menus. Both subtitles and narration can be switched on and off independently.

Region-free DVD-R. Playable in computers and PAL-compatible DVD-players world-wide.
