Re: A day with 2'6'' gauge 2-8-0 number 1320 hauling sugar cane
| February 05, 2022 08:49PM |
Arriving at the Mal Tiempo sugar mill, the crew dropped off the passengers near the small narrow gauge engine terminal, and moved the loads to the cane loadout. At the engine terminal there were four more 2-8-0s with two -1321 and 1355- under steam.
Engine 1320 returned from the cane loadout to the engine terminal for servicing before starting further operations
The engine terminal was located close to the mill
