I have seen and winced at many nasty comments about this tour either not going ahead or RTC not being able to deliver.
The First photo tour is definite for September with Railway Touring Company
I can assure everyone that the RTC trip is going ahead and will be wonderful. Everything possible is being done to make sure it is successful. Steam will be available and it is expected that No. 17 will take the Duran section and No. 53 the Riobamba section.
For full details of this tour please go to the railway touring company website:

And even better, come on the tour for the trip of a lifetime.
I do not know why people think it will not happen. We are not waiting for the railway to reopen. It is open the entire length from Quito to Duran.
See you all in Ecuador.

Note for John West:
I will definitely be there in September - October and also plan a visit in June.
