International Railroad Discussion > Lime train C560 leaving EVP yard (Brazil)

Hi, today I had a chance to stay near Liz Cement Co. when lime train C560 was leaving the yard bound to Bahia state,  a jorney of more than 1,200 km. 

1) A truck crossing the road with a brand new equipment for mining companies produced by Astec of Brazil;
2 - 3) U20C's 2508 and 2596 leading train C560.

Wow, I bet he sure got tired of hanging on.

That first engines needs an overhaul and paint job.

Very interesting looking truck Pedro. Boy, the point engine sure got hit with graffiti and looks like a long ride for the brakeman or conductor on the rear.

Larry, that guy in the end of the train is the yardman. He took a ride to the end of the yard to switch the main key to mainline againg since this trains is coming from track four.

Yes, it is a special safety belt for railroad employees.
