Videos and pics by a friend of mine with an train leaded GE U20C's in the tracks near Corinto, MG in the line linking thec states of Minas Gerais to Bahia. It is about 170km from my town.

It is too far away to call for a track gang to remove these trees, so let's push them away.

Date: 02/14/20 16:43 Re: Let's clean the tracks (Brazil) Author: pedrop Hi there isn't place or time to switch. They use one locomotives to clean the tracks during the journey if the trees are not so big to the small GEs.
