Chasing the special train 3691 on 15.09.2019 with diesel locomotive 07 123 on the Sub-Balkan railway line. The timetable of the train was pretty tight and the chase was very difficult, but despite that we've manage to catch the train at several places. Unfortunately we didn't follow it through the whole way up to Burgas, because the train was running in opposite of the sun direction and there's no opportunities for a good photos and videos. Also, as I understood later, the loco has broke down at Druzhba station and the trip of the foreign railfans has been ended there.
If you are curious, here you can find also a trainspotting video with the first part of the journey with the participation of steam loco 16.27 through the Cross-Balkan railway from Gorna Oryahovitsa to Dabovo:
