If I recall, it was still running in the early 1970s, I think on the Cuzco-Santa Ana line renumbered 100. Others who have been there say they have not seen it since, only an SV-like BLW Mikado (but not apparently one of the SV 2-8-2s that were sent there).

My understanding is that Peru does not have a steel mill, but does have a scrap melting facility, where, perhaps it ended its existence. A lot of us would like to know.

That was a great bunch of rare photos, by the way.
