International Railroad Discussion > MRS at João Aires (Brazil)Date: 05/14/17 05:25 MRS at João Aires (Brazil) Author: pedrop Hi, MRS has some great spots for train watching, specially in the famous Mantiqueira hill. Last Friday (May 12) I was there witha friend to watch some trains reaching the summit at João Aires. It is a bucolic location where the train climbs a steep grade and when it arrives in the yard we have an impression that is coming from the ground. At light, the headlights use to light the sky.
In this pic, we see an empty ore running in the yard after reach the summit in the background. Pedro Rezende Vespasiano MG, Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/14/17 05:27 by pedrop. Date: 05/14/17 08:37 Re: MRS at João Aires (Brazil) Author: YukonYeti Good stuff!
