Train L218 (Brazil)
Author: pedrop

Today morning I spent half an hour in EVP yard watching the locomotives parked on track 4. While I was there, I heard from the radio of one of the engines that the engineer of the train L218 asked permition to pass through the yard, so I wait a few minutes to watch it. Here are some pictures and a video taken there.

1 - 2) Two U20Cs and three Dash 9s parked on track 4;

3) The grass is growing on the U20C.
