Pedro, what speed do the narrow gauge trains normally run?

Nice look at the long empty log train Pedro!

Vale:
Passager  - 67 km/h;
Ore -  65 km/h
MoW -  40 km/h
VLI:
Grain - 60 km/h
Freight and fuel - 50 km/h
But VLI has many lines with low speed below 30 km/h.

Thank you Pedro for the video. Do the trains transport the logs directly from the forest or are they loaded on trucks and then transferred to the rail cars?

Hi, the logs come by trucks to EKE yard where they are loaded in the trains. The wood is eucalyptus.
