This video has about twenty minutes of solid IRCA/FES action. The Ferrocarril Guaqui in Bolivia which runs from La Paz to Lake Titicaca and the Serra Nova inclines on the the São Paulo Railway in Brazil are also featured. Of course, there is quite a bit of Mexican footage too, of both standard and narrow gauges.
What a GEM!!!
As a certain friend of mine might say,
MUCHO BUENO SABOR!!!
Here's another video with FES (EX IRCA) 110 in the 1970s.
Yet another one, this has 123 running from Guatemala City to Quirigua.
Enjoy,
John
