|||
|
James Waite first visited the railway back on 16th September 1977 and these pictures give a flavour of its operation then. There are a number of reports and articles on the Perus-Pirapora Railway on this website if you want to know more:
The Preservation Society ( IFPCC) would greatly
appreciate receiving pictures of the railway from visitors who photographed it
before closure. Please send an email to the following address (not a link, you
will have to retype it): More details of the locomotives shown can be found in the list on the linked page above. 2-6-2 7 looks positively gleaming as it takes water in Cajamar yard though it's a shame about the rusty smokebox!
2-6-2T 14 shunts in Cajamar yard before taking out a loaded train.
2-6-2T 14 sets off from Cajamar yard for Perus with its train.
2-6-2T 10 backs onto its train in Cajamar yard and then departs for Perus.
