There are some wagon types that one just won't see on the railways anymore. This includes whole variety of old box wagons, that have gradually started disappearing from our railways in the late 1990s and early 2000s. On the photo is "Taes" plus two "Gbgs" box wagons. The Taes wagons were produced in years 1965-1973 by Czechoslovak wagon factory Tatra Česká Lípa. It have retractable roof. The Gbgs wagons were produced in years 1970-1971 in Romania and delivered to the Czechoslovak State Railways.
