Sometimes also a traffic jam can help.
Few days ago, turning in av. Atalaya in Callao, I saw the sulphuric acid train, headed by 1024 and 701, waiting to enter in the tanks terminal but in unphotographable position.
After few hundreds meters I became stuck i in a never ending cueue and started with blasfemies in languages that I didn't think I knew.
But during the waiting the train was recovered into the terminal and the locos returned to the Patio Central running on the track along the road.
So I abandoned the car in the middle of the jam and, slaloming between the trucks, shooted myself to photograph one of my "black beasts":
the last JT26CW still on duty.
The acid trains always have an emergency wagon at one end for the case of leaks and unfortunately this time the locos took it with them partially obstructing the 701 frontal and, more, the photos are not very good, they were taken with the phone, running, and in a very "hot" area. But it's all right, these are my first images of that machine, next time I will do something better.
1024 pushing 701 and the emergency wagon along the av. Atalaya.
