Baldwin 210

Jose Beraldo reports:

Here are two moments of another preservation work carried out by ABPF. This time is Baldwin 4-6-0 nr.210 of the former Rede Mineira de Viação, which is seen in picture standing at the platform of the Jaguariuna station, together with other engines, which in 1985 arrived at the soon to be formed Viação Ferrea Campinas-Jaguariuna, which will become the largest operator of preserved steam engines in South America. Actually, the Jaguariuna station is no longer reached by VFCJ’s tracks, but the building was kept intact and used to display a static steam train.

And now, completely rebuilt, nr. 210 is seen here at the Carlos Gomes station of VFCJ on September 25, 1993, manouvering to couple to the standing passenger coaches, and take the train back to Anhumas.
