I think that someone at FCCA, in the late afternoon of yesterday, made a big mistake.
The usual empty tankers haul from the storage site, that generally waits outside the Patio Central to give way to another train that departs from the interior, this time switched and entered completely, loco and cars.
I was there to shot the departing one but instead, from Lima, came a monster-train of more than 60 cars that, after a stop on the road, began to enter Patio Central too.
BUT, on the inside tracks, yet there were the tankers rake, a full train ready to leave and many other cars being serviced on the unloading facility so, after few minutes, the mega-train stopped with many cars still outside and, far more important, blocking the very busy Avenida Gambetta, that connects the maritime customs with the container warehouses and the northern settlements. Only after more than 30 minutes, when vehicles queuing were paralysing a big part of Callao, it has been possible to free the level crossing but still many cars remained outside Patio Central and the railroad traffic was still blocked.
Later I've gone to a client but today in the morning train circulation was still irregular.
And probably someone lost his job.
