Ah, good job, LucasMR. You can start to see the slogans of this train (about 2/3 down the green tarpaulins) which make for one continuous, 70-plus-or-minus-car announcement. I know it's tough to get them legible unless you were so close you couldn't have seen the locomotives. I think one of them may say "Denuncie a trabalho infantil" ("Denounce child labor") but I can't quite tell. I think you said given this train's speed and obvious coloration it's nicknamed the "green cows"?

Hi Kurt !
Yes, this is a shot where is possible to read some of the slogans (partially). The first car slogan is "Denuncie o trabalho escravo" (denounce slave labor), the third car slogan is "valorize o trabalho voluntário" (values volunteering), followed by "poluição do ar: essa atitude cheira mal" (air pollution: this attitude stinks), and "utilize lâmpadas que proporcionem economia" (use energy-saving bulbs).
And yes, the railfans here nicknamed this train as "green cow" due the color of the cars and the very slow speed.
