This is a post to go with #WednesdayWalk challenge by @tattoodjay


Last time I showed my winter walk on the railway and I said I was going to take a similar walk in the coming days. I did this walk this morning. I walked a little more than 8 kilometers. It was a wonderful walk.


The start started from a small station house, next to which there was a working diesel locomotive. I must say that I didn't even notice that cars were attached to him. I only saw it on the way back.
In the meantime, I headed along the rails towards the city center.




The arrow has been moved to the main path and I am walking along the main path. Today I'm walking alone. My wife stayed at home. She had an iron argument - I don't like to walk on sleepers, I don't know how to walk on sleepers, and the path along the rails has not yet been freed from snow.
I like to walk on the sleepers. My whole childhood was spent next to rails and sleepers. I walked by rail to the forest. I worked 2 summer seasons during the holidays on the railroad when I was in school. It's very cool to walk on rails.






Today I met a lot of people walking. A lot of people just walk these ways to work, and someone likes to walk here in the summer. There is one great feature of the railway - it is almost always dry and there is no dirt, unlike our highways, which are not adapted for walking with their feet, there is a danger of being crushed by a car.



So. It is necessary to take a walk in the afternoon so that the sun does not shine into the lens. But in this case, our mountain and houses will be in the shade. And this is not very good. And you also need to choose a day when there is practically no evaporation over the forest.












The southern slope was practically free of snow and exposed all the dirt that people throw into the ravine. Although these creatures cannot be called people. They shit where they live. And no one will punish them for eot. These are the realities of our life. This is a Soviet habit - people don't feel like they own their land.



The road entered the forest. And there is still snow in the forest. By the way, this sign means that the driver must honk, because there may be danger ahead - a walking person. Once I studied the signs that are installed on the railway.






A device that blocks entry to this railway line. It leads to a loading area where logs are loaded into wagons.






I walked about 3 kilometers when I got a view of the houses. In 2007, I inspected an unfinished house in this area. I wanted to buy it in order to finish it and live in it. But his condition was very bad. The house was wooden and some of the logs already had to be changed because the roof was leaking.



And I didn't even know about these houses. It seems to me that the last time I was in this place, we were skiing here with friends. So the construction started around 2010. Well, a lot of people wanted to live in their own homes, and not in concrete high-rise buildings.






This is the first butterfly I've met this year! And it's very big. I have not seen such a thing even in the summer in our region.



Do you see a butterfly? She flew away. The dark dot in the middle of the screen is a butterfly.









My smartphone shows that I have walked a little over 4 kilometers. It's time to go on the way back.
Look - the left side is winter, but the right side is quite spring. This is how the spring sun works.












Small spruce sprout all along the road. This place has very fertile land and is always warm from the rail, which is why small trees grow so well.



On the way back I met a guy with a girl and they had 4 small dogs! Yes, I will say that these were not the only people with dogs.

I also met 2 guys who were running along the road.
The railway is a place for active people!









Well, I'm back at the station. We put the arrow back on the siding and go to the car.
Friends, I was joking about the arrow translation. I didn't touch them!

Well. I wish all my friends, observers, and readers wonderful walks on Wednesdays. And also on Sundays and any other day!
I want to improve my walks with the help of the STEP'N project and virtual sneakers! But I'll tell you about it another time when I master these sneakers.
