Remarks & Notes |
It is still early in the morning as EF Dona Teresa Christina (EFDTC) 1950 built Baldwin 2-6-6-2 No. 204 waits for its train to be loaded, while Lauro Mueller Mine 26 4-6-0 Alco 1920 shunts cars on the high line to the gravity loading arrangement. A year or two after this picture was taken a huge flood devastated the area, and although other parts of this meter gauge railroad reopened, this steeply graded branch was never rebuilt, and the 2-6-6-2's where set aside. Note the American style class slights of the front of the 204.
