The corrugated side panels look (to a western European) to be typically Russian, (although of course widely copied in China). Is this a coincidence or do older carriages from other nations also have them? Date: 09/08/16 14:27 Re: The VR Sm1 of Finland Author: Stas Here is my tribute to the deceased one.
First photos is from year 2000, when Helsinki railway station did not have a glass roof. The second is from 2001. Now over that tracks we have hotel building.   Date: 09/09/16 02:22 Re: The VR Sm1 of Finland Author: 86235 spflow Wrote:
