International Railroad Discussion > Rumo C30-7 on the road ( Brazil)

Hi, Rumo railroad is sending another C30-7 to the construction site of Ferrovia Norte e Sul - FNS. Rumo won the auction to control the south stretch of FNS, linking its broad gauge system in São Paulo and Mato Grosso states to Goiás and Tocantins states. The north stretch belongs to VLI and connects to Vale north system in Carajás railroad
- EFC. Rumo intends to finish the connection with FNS in the end of 2020.

How many kilometers was this road haul?

Its amazing to me that the roads down there have such high overhead clearance, Here in the states hardly anything is built taller than the normal simi hight of 13foot 6 inchs
 

Hi, it is a journey of 650 km. The destination is https://maps.app.goo.gl/epPHV7ncW8co26WV8

One can use the link above follow the tracks to north and to south to see the FNS section under construction.
