Video documentation of a special steam train event, which took place on the 28th of May 2017, on an unused, Southern Polish, mountain railroad from Nowy Sącz to Chabówka. The train was hauled by OKz32-2 tank locomotive built in H. Cegielski locomotive works in 1934. OKz32 locomotive series was designed especially for the mountain railway to Zakopane (which neighbours the line our special event took place on).
Special train event was organized by Nowosądeckie Stowarzyszenie Miłośników Kolei (Railway Enthusiasts Association in Nowy Sącz) as a part of the project "Małopolskie Szlaki Turystyki Kolejowej", created for organizing special train excursions in the region of Lesser Poland. The project is funded by Marshall of the Małopolskie Voivodeship.
