We will start off with an special convoi that went from Antwerpen-Noord firstly to PW Melle to drop of the HLE11 87. Then she went via L122 from Melle to Sain-Ghislain, via Zottegem where I spotted all those beauties! In the lead the HLD55 12 in her TVM New Look livery, second the HLE23 09, followed by the lovely HLE20 21 and ofcourse one of the more unique ones the HLE25 51!

For the upcoming videos I found a really cool place along L89 where you can spot some cool stuff!
HLE18 72 passing by with M4 coaches, this is not commen at all! Only as P-train to Schaarbeek. The HLE18 supports the HLE21/27 during peak hour but still with the lovely M4 coaches! Due the M4 cab car not compatible with the HLE18, this service is only a push service, instead pus-pull with the HLE21/27's

HLE21 24 passing by quick with M4 coaches. Most of the time the HLE27 should run with the M4's but this time not! She's an IC service from Schaarbeek to Kortrijk, still a servcice that always has a M4 & sometimes even a M5, mostly during peak hour!
06:52
HLE18 69 passing by with the lovely M6 doubledecker coaches! IC Service to Brussel-Aiport-Zaventem, coming from all the way back from Oostende!
