Friends of the Rail Forum

G'day,
I am interested in discovering more about these intriguing railways, especially the FCAB.
The FCAB having adopted a number of ex QR and WAGR locomotives from Australia.
I am hoping that someone has visited this region of Chile and will be able to help.
The track grades, safe working systems, are of major interest to me.
Thanks,
Steve.

Thanks, Steve, and welcome to the FOTR Forum. I hope someone will be able to help you with this query.

Thanks John,
I recently viewed a very interesting DVD featuring these railways.
But, the operational aspects were not generally covered.
I do recollect Michael Palin travelling via the metre gauge through the Atacama desert in a tv show.
Steve.
