@Wetman: There's pretty clearly three. Mackensen (talk) 17:57, 6 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
- Is it telephoto foreshortening or what? I certainly could not say "pretty clearly".Wetman (talk) 13:11, 24 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
  - @Wetman: I don't see anything special about the image. There's 7030 in the lead; that's visible from the number plates. There's a second locomotive, with "703" visible in its number plates, behind it. Finally, the cab of the third locomotive is visible facing the road-railer. I suppose they fade into each other a little, when zoomed out. Mackensen (talk) 13:23, 24 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
