No. 347, behind G12 50941, originated at Zaza del Medio and is en route to the port town of Tunas de Zaza on the south coast. There are four passenger cars on #347: an LCL-baggage and three coaches, all converted from box cars. Photo by Joe McMillan, February 23, 2017.

Date: 03/15/17 19:25 Re: Cuba-2017 Author: inCHI How predictable or reliable are the passenger schedules? For example, are these trains daily?
Date: 03/17/17 14:39 Re: Cuba-2017 Author: RS12394 No, we did not see any MLW locomotives. The passenger trains run on a schedule, but not everyday. You have to carefully check which trains are running and when.
