Skoda-built 4-8-2 steam loco, Slovakia

 
A former Czechoslovakian State Railways (CSD) locomotive, 475.179 is now preserved operational, and these pic were taken by Stu Hammond a few weeks ago in Slovakia during what he calls a "Commie nostalgia trip". Of the 172 produced by Skoda between 1947 and 1950, 25 were sent to North Korea. Thanks to Stu for sending these in.
