Virtual Railfan Tour of Ecuador 1988 - Milagro to Bucay

 

From Milagro we continued in the flat lands to Bucay

There was time for one runpast but the railway seemed to be in a hurry to get us to Bucay.

At Bucay which had a large engine shed, there was much discussion

Our locomotive was removed and disappeared

The freight which had been following us, arrived and the locomotive also disappeared.

The Mixto, bound for Duran then appeared having come down the mountain behind a 2-8-0


The arrival of the Mixto at Bucay was quite a social occasion

It took some while to get through the Bucay street.

The engine which had brought us from Duran, a 2-6-0,  had been turned and took off back to Duran with the Mixto

The engine which had brought the Mixto in was turned and backed on to our train to start our climb into the mountains.

And so our adventure continued.
