Steam-hunt: Ušatá - Chasing a Magnificent Steamer

The steam season in Czechia has started, and one of the first treats train enthusiasts (and children) could enjoy was this beautifully repaired Soviet-era steamer called Ušatá (the name refers to its floppy ears appearance) that has been recently restored.
For me, this meant getting up at 3:30 in the morning and traveling over 320 kilometers to have a chance to catch it. It was absolutely worth it!

Nice to see this legend back in steam after the overhaul.
