Locomotives to Nigeria




GEVISA, GE of Brazil, is producing a batch of 25 locomotives model C25-MP to Nigeria. The locomotives are metric gauge and weigh 96 metric tones. The first batch dispatched consisted of five machines, being following by one second batch of seven machines. On the last weekend I found four locomotives of that second batch being transported on trucks in BR-040, proceeding toi the port of Rio de Janeiro. Unfortunately all of the machines were covered by the common GE blue canvas, but it was possible to took pictures of details, as trucks and couplers. These, for sign, differ of everything that we are accustomed to see, as seeing in the pictures below.
