International Railroad Discussion > Alco at Talca Chile April 2019

Arrived at first light at the station in Talca Chile to ride the last ramal and the first thing I see is an Alco sitting under the train shed. The guards weren't letting anyone one onto the platform yet, so I used my lack of ability to speak Spanish to my advantage (you have to access the platform to get to the toilets and I pointed that way). Wasn't a lie, I required the facilities, but it also gave me a chance to photograph the train.

As it turned out this was the same unit I had shot in Santiago a few days earlier, but getting it under the train shed in Talca was a total win!
