SLR 393 Pictures

393 is now a night train, and seems to be running on Sundays and Wednesdays, but was a evening train when these pics were taken. They used to swap crews with 394 in Berlin on a regular basis. Now the best long distance train for pictures is the 394 in the early morning as they may be delayed and be after sunrise.
