Not sure how old this photo is. Is that one of the 0-4-2T locomotives said to be still in the roofless enginehouse with the two 4-4-0s there?http://cgi.ebay.com/PERU-MOLLENDO-WHARF-LOCOMOTIVE-ca-1910-RARE-POSTCARD_W0QQitemZ6216410527QQcategoryZ20263QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemCan't see much in this one, but is that the ancient Rogers 4-4-0 that is still there?http://cgi.ebay.com/PERU-MOLLENDO-LOCOMOTIVE-ca-1910-NICE-RARE-POSTCARD_W0QQitemZ6217566685QQcategoryZ20263QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

Mollendo was the original Pacific Ocean port for the FCS (Southern Railway of Peru), later replaced by Matarani. The FCS had some Rogers built 0-6-0ST locos. One of these may be the loco in the picture. The location for the second picture is captioned as "Santiago de Surco" I cannot locate this place but there is/was a station called Surco on the FCC (Central Railway).The 4-4-0 and 0-4-2ST locos you refer to were at Puerto Eten in the north of the country.Jim L. |
