FCCA 1001 in the flanks of the Andean
(ID 10404)
FCCA 1001 ( C30-7 ) in the switchback just above Casapalca ( ~4300m a.s.l.
PeruRail 752 and 754 lead their loaded tank car train through the Altiplano of the Andes at around 3800m a.s.l.



FCCA 1001 in the flanks of the Andean Mountains, just underneath the Summit at Galera. Amazing, how this railroad was built into the mountains more than 100 years ago.
