International Railroad Discussion > BHP team in Brazil to know the Joule locomotives

Hi, friend in Vale mining said me that there are some guys from BHP Australia visiting Tubarão shops to know a bit more on the EMD Joule locomotives and the cathenary system developed by Vale to recharge them while working in the port area. The team will also visit EMD plant where two SD70J are being built o BHP.

Have you seen any pics of the SD70J yet? Thanks for the update.

Not for while. I intend to go around the EMD plant this weekend. Maybe I can see something interesting in the yard there.
