FEGUA Mikes 150-206 were all very similar and had a t.e. of around
27,000 making them quite close to a K-27. Over a period of several
years, the Guatemalan Gov't allowed the railroad to deteriorate.
A gent named Henry Posner tried running it and gave it as good a
shot as anybody could hope for but it seems that he was stonewalled
by the gov't. and the railroad essentially no longer exists. There
are still a very few locomotives left in storage.
