Diesellijnen Toen & Nu (1): Dieselend door vier decennia - Friesland, Groningen, Drenthe en Overijssel
Illya Vaes (in daily life an information analyst at ProRail) has been photographing trains since he was a teenager. In doing so, he increasingly also paid attention to the environment. He not only photographed in his living environment, but literally travelled the entire country to capture special trains and places, with a preference for non-electrified sections of track and diesel trains.
In about forty years, Illya regularly returned to some of the places where he had previously photographed, so that interesting comparisons of environment and equipment then and now arose.
The author often received positive reactions to his photos on the internet and suggestions to make a photo book with this theme, led to Illya diving into the photo and slide collection of himself and his late brother Camille and also supplementing the found shots with specially made shots in the present.
He was also able to make full use of the often attractive material of other photographers, sometimes made at remote locations, both for the past and for the present. The result of these efforts can be seen in this book, the first in a series of three. This part deals with the diesel lines in Friesland, Groningen, Drenthe and Overijssel. Join Illya on a journey across the country and through time!
