Re: A day with 2'6'' gauge 2-8-0 number 1320 hauling sugar cane

On this trip I shot both video and still pictures, trying to alternate between these media. At Mal Tiempo I shot the last still pictures at the stream bridge. To complete the story, I took lower resolution screen shots for the remainder of the return run to the Mal Tiempo mill.
Here is another view of the bridge crossing. With Cuba situated in hurricane terrain, a very heavy duty bridge seems essential, even for 30 inch gauge.
