Today I could see the templates of itt testing the clearances in my area for loading areas and also any other things that can needs to be modified to receive the new units. It is said that they will be ES44ACi on narrow gauge using BB trucks. But dufferent frm the Rumo and VLi ES43BBis, the Vale model will come with standard cab. Let´s see.
