A Train Arrives at Yambol's Train Station

 

A train arrives at Yambol's train station heading for Stara Zagora. There is always a big step up to get into the carriage; a problem for the elderly and disabled.

Children's Train in a Yambol Park

Funny how all trains for children are seen as the old steam trains. This is an example in a Yambol park albeit all the children at school at this time of the day

Yambol Children's Play Train Carriages

In Yambol there are many play apparatus for children and most of these are old but still in use. I see some modern play equipment made out of hard brightly coloured plastic materials and find these quite unattractive. These carriages are far more left to the imagination of children and encourages social interaction with the seating that invite children to sit together and share the imaginary train ride. It may be old and rusty but is far more stimulating than any other modern plastic apparatus that I have seen in recent years here. Long may this set of train play carriages remain.

A Goods Train in Yambol

This yellow train was seen transporting goods in the Yambol junction. It looks like concrete railway sleepers in the trucks. Being a train fan, it is good to see lots of activity that are going on here which means that there is some maintenance and construction within the system. The train links are vital to any economy and Yambol has good links nationally.

Train Timetable

If you want to go somewhere by train, there is a booking office in Yambol town centre where you can buy your ticket in advance. Even if the office is closed there is a big display showing the train time and destinations. Very useful!
