More pictures from Brazil. Hope you enjoy. Finally got something other then new GE's

Picture 1 - Two southbound ore loads sit in Bom Jardim de Minas yard (P2-06) waiting to head south to the ports.

Picture 2 - MRS 5244 (SD40-2) is assigned to a work train today picking up ribbon rail.

Picture 3 - Typical view along the run. Lots of high bridges and tunnels. 47 tunnels in 100 KM run south of Bom Jardim.

Picture 4 - More typical views from this line, high bridges and tunnels.

Picture 5 - MRS 3299 (U23C) and another older GE are assigned to ballast train. The yard is being expanded adding three additional tracks. New GE's are on the rear of a ore train.

Picture 6 - Narrow gauge locomotive #4073 works (I think Vale RR) a yard. Not sure the model of locomotive.

Great stuff!

Picture 6 is I think an EMD G8 of Ferrovie Centro Atlantica, as you say a subsidiary of Vale. Picture 7 #6160 is an MLW MX620, I didn't realise they were still around.

Thanks.
