From the way that rolling stock is riding, whoever looks after the road on the Cumbrec & Toltec is doing a damn fine job; especially when you look at the train from head on going over that check-railed bridge, you can see how narrow the gauge is compared to the width of the loco, so even a slight variation in rail height would really make it roll!
Both the D&S and the C&T run tourist passenger trains in spring, summer and fall, usually with steam. When fire danger is too great then with a diesel. The trains shown here were photographers charters, the C&T can be easily chased from Chama to Cumbres and a bit further, then disappears into the wilderness. The D&S is mostly flat until Rockwood? Then into the wilderness until Silverton. The FCAB is both chaseable and runs enough trains to stake out locations. Cumbre Pass is a great location, a 4x4 is recommended. If chasing towards the Bolivian border, a full gas tank is essential, and again a 4x4. This is the Atacama Desert, ain’t much out there. NO gas at the border.
thank you for showing chile😄

Very nice video and beautiful countryside. I like this one of the best video of steam train.
Thank you very much for the beautiful footages. From the narrow gage train’s country.
How is this gauge in metric scale ?
Lovely to watch, thanks for sharing!! :-)
At 2:23, that is such a beautiful shot.
जीवन में अगर कुछ प्राप्त न हो तो निराश मत होना क्योंकि ईश्वर ने आपके लिए कुछ बेहतर सोच रखा है ॥❤😂😂❤
Essa série e excelente ,ótima mesmo ,e a melhor que eu já vi
I feel like that old fashioned railways with steam trains are more popular and iconic than the new modern railways with diesel trains
It's thomas's fault
Beautiful video like and subscribed from Czech Republic 🙂👍👍👍
ok amazing the loco motif nostalgia
Got any video on 75cms gauge from Argentina?
- Jacobacci to Esquel railroad
- Rio Turbio to Rio Gallegos
Cheers
Peter I build narrow gage model trains but are these active trains today?? Could I see and investigate these units and track??

Any-one know the reason for the 'flashing blue lights' on several of the 'FCAB' loco's.?

You are forgetting the two footers of Maine (and the one in Massachusetts)
Well, no. I’m only using the footage I’ve personally shot. Maine is a long way from my home in Arizona.
@@petercrook4626 aahh ok I didn't realize it was your own footage, keep up the good work
Good
Do the Puffing billy railway next
You never did get to New Zealand? All of New Zealand is narrow gauge, a mix of modern railway and some historic railway
I did. The Tranz Alpine and the Tarik Gorge people were very nice to me with cab rides. My wife was with me so mostly tourist stiff. Enjoyed Tui beer!

Did you know narrow gauge in Czech is more modern?
Never thought I'd be this early. Uploaded 6 minutes ago and no views yet.
Wow
Omg Omg! Look at all the CO2! Quick call Bill Gates!
