Remarks & Notes |
One of the ten maginificent 4-8-4s built by Maquinista in 1955-56 climbs with ease towards Bujedo on the ascent to Pancorbo with the 13.50 Irun to La Coruna express. Sadly their days on the line they were built for were nearly at an end and they moved to the Miranda de Ebro to Zaragoza line for a couple more years. This engine is the only survivor to-day. |
