The class 150s spent several years on the secondary route from Praha to Hradec Kralove before returning to front line services in 2008. The line hardly tested their 140 km/h maximum speed and 4000 kW power output but they looked good all the same.
150.021 was photographed pulling away from Podebrady with R954, the 16:14 Hradec Kralove to Praha Smichov on 1 May 2006.
