Remarks & Notes 
Very special train run by Train Unlimited Tours in 1991. The train has two old GE's (6705 and 03) + the "High Mountain" Ganz Mavag railcar. This train line stopped working in 79, due to an avalanche that took the rails on the Chilean side.The Chilean government was not more interested because of high costs and low effectiveness of the line, and modernization was unthinkable to the blind eyes of third world leaders, and so the branch was never rebuilt, the Argentine side could be followed passing, until the construction of a dam, finally ended with the trips. Currently there are plans for a fully new railway pass.

From a hint of "Bee" (NKP 765), colorful "Bees" (KCS), "Bees" w/ "attitude", to "Bees" that "sting" your eyes, in their own way they have "Bee" on display! Equipment that "Buzzes" with Yellow & Black colors! ("Bees" can still "Bee" entering this "hive"!)
