I believe the line to Salinas and Playas was standard gauge. Someone told me on past tour to Ecuador that they had taken time to drive the route to the coast. The grade and several stations were still visable. The rest of the National System is 42 inch gauge. However I think some other 600, 762 mm gauge lines worked in the cane fields and some mines.
