Alcos in Brazil

Trains Magazine General Discussion

Hi guys,

I open this thread just to show some of the Alcos still alive in Brazil. Not many units, but they are great. Here is one of RSC that work as MOW at Rio de Janeiro metropolitan trains.[:)]

Not a RSC, but a RS3[:D]

This is the last RSC3 in Brazil. In fact, nowadays it´s using a new painting and is working at the construction of Norte e Sul branch of Carajas rwy. That line will link the north and south system of CVRD mining co (more than 3,500 km of line) [:)]. I will add more pictures of it soo.

We had 5 ALCO S1 at former EFCB diesel fleet and all them are alive, but just one in operation condition. Here it is.

Okay, I think I have at least part of the problem solved. I have been able to locate this photo (I think). Here is the link to it.

And I’ll make an attempt to post the image too (although I suspect that the image URL changes frequently)

Here is the last PA-2 in Brazil. Here we see it at Jundiai shops being restored.

Pedro, I want to thank you for all of the wonderful pictures that you have been posting. [tup]

Hi Pedro,

I have the same problems as others in viewing your pictures. Datafevers links do work however.

Great pictures, show us more and not only of Alco’s!

greetings,

Marc Immeker

Here is the nice RSD8 on CBTU fleet. These locos run at Paraiba state.[:)]

I’m not sure what the difference is, but I am seeing all of your pictures now. It was just those first two that didn’t show up.

Keep up the good work, Pedro.

One of the 10 RSD12 bought by RFFSA in the 1962. They now belongs to MRSL, but are out of service since 2003. Maybe they can return for yard operation.
