Remarks & Notes |
Two of the new delivered locomotives of the SQM, built by Casagrande Motori in Santiago, are rounding the curve "Pacific View" high above the town of Tocopilla on the line up to Barriles. The grade is continously 4.0 % and the train is more than 300 meter above sea level now, about 8 kilometer after departure. |
