At the railway museum in Puebla, Puebla. I think the 4-4-0 is a fake.

An FT in what appears to be good shape !

Call up Doyle McCormack, looks like another south o' the border
shopping trip/rescue mission is in order.

Quite an impressive collection. One of the photo captions brings up an
interesting question, have the powers that be in Mexico ever considered mainline steam as a potential tourist draw ? I'd have to imagine with
all that Mexico has to offer from a scenic point of view, a mainline steam
operation would certainly draw many of us from the north side of the Rio Grande.

I'd go down to ride behind 3034. She was the first locomotive I ever rode the cab of. Hard to believe that it was forty years ago!

The 0-6-0 look like a war dept 0-6-0. Maybe even a side tanker with a tender added in later years.
