The attached photo showing 17 at the water tank appears to be the same location. This photo was taken by Robert Whetham. The second photo was also shared with me by Bob and is either SVRy #16 or #18 renumbered to #6 in Peru. I believe Bob said this photo was used on a railroad company calendar. I will put in a plug for Bob's book which is "In Search of the Narrow Gauge". It has great accounts of his travels around the globe to visit and ride narrow gauge lines including riding behind #17 in Peru. Bob has written two other books specifically on the Peruvian railroads.
