International Railroad Discussion > Kirow crane in the consist of train S312 (Brazil)Date: 01/20/21 16:09 Kirow crane in the consist of train S312 (Brazil) Author: pedrop Hi, as mentioned in my thread https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?6,5179758 there was a derailment at Km 845, about 220 Km far from here. VLI is sending a Vale mining Takraf crane and its own Kirow crane to clean the wreck site. Vale train S021 passed here before sun rise and I could not see it, but VLI train S312 arrived here at 5:30 AM and I could follow it a bit taking pictures and videos. Here they are:

Larry Date: 01/20/21 17:15 Re: Kirow crane in the consist of train S312 (Brazil) Author: pedrop VLI has two narrow gauge and one broad gauge Kirow. It also has some Takraf and Orton cranes too.
Vale mining has one broad gauge Kirow at Carajás railroad (EFC). The narrow gauge Vitória a Minas (EFVM) has one Takraf crane.
