Up early the next morning and straight to the station to shoot the sleeper from Nice-Strasbourg and a few other bits before returning to the hotel for Breakfast and then back off to Zurich via Basel Airport.

Mulhouse 26/01/12 

Having finished with Zurich and Dubendorf airports, I headed for Strasbourg.  On the way I snapped a couple of things - a smart Re 4/4 at Zurich and the gronk at Basel that did the shunt from Switzerland-France at the main station.  The shunter was horrified that I leapt on through his open door for the red pen!

Basel 26/01/12

There then followed a very productive session of night photography at Strasbourg.  I was a little concerned about photography here, and the army guys with rifles were avoided at all costs (!!!), but amazingly I never had a single bit of aggro.  One French Driver asked me about my 7D though:-)

Strasbourg 26/01/12

Up early on the 27th for morenocturnal shots, and then back to the hotel for a rushed breakfast followed by TGV to Paris, and Eurostar home.

And so the end of a successful trip.  Thanks for viewing the shots!
