Brand new Dash 9 to VLI (Brazil)

[Ed Sand]

Thanks Pedro. Many years ago I spent a fair bit of time in Bauru with Ferronorte, but that was before Fepasa was privatized and BAP/Mesopotamico became ALL. It was fun seeing the dual gauge yard there under wire. I haven't kept up with all the different companies.

Ed - Did you get to see the big GE electrics that were a dead ringer for New Haven 2-C-C-2 units. I think they also had some Little Joe's down there somewhere as well.

[Ed Sand]

I did! The Little Joes were retired by that point, but those other big GEs were pretty cool too.

I've got some photographs somewhere of them, but don't have a scanner.

Threa are many videos about them in the youtube. Here it is one of them

Funny how coincidences work!

Today ALL announced they're selling the BAP and Meso. networks to Tachint.

In the past ALL had business in Brazil and Argentina, but now they are separated companies.
