Restored railway station at Schaerbeek\/Schaarbeek in Brussels, Belgium. Exposed with a Lumix LX7.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Schaerbeek is a large station in suburban Brussels. Out front is a tram terminus where modern Flexity trams gather between runs. The station building is a classic, and just recently restored. The railway themed pub is nearby and in sight of the station.<\/p>\n

This bizarrely adorned tram was paused at the Schaerbeek tram terminus. Where was it going? I jumped on and went for a spin. An hour later I was at Lancaster. Didn’t look like Pennsylvania to me, but hey! (By the way, that’s Le Cheval de Fer to the right of the tram.) Lumix LX7 photo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

SNCB is the Belgian national railway and it runs a lot of trains. While most trains don\u2019t stop at Schaerbeek, there\u2019s no shortage of action. In just a few minutes, I\u2019d caught a variety of equipment passing.<\/p>\n

Since I had three cameras and sunlight, I made the most of my brief time at this railway nexus.<\/p>\n

Before long, pictures exposed and beer consumed, I was rolling along through cobble stone streets on one of the aforementioned Flexity trams.<\/p>\n
