Thanks BarbaPanagos, you might be right about the car.

By the way, four more posts and you will enter your 2nd millennium ;)

Christo,

I've seen those locos in that repair yard before, because my parents went to Cuba twice before. Watching their pictures, nothing has changed for ages, as in the island.

Did you notice any work on them?

I've the idea that they're waiting for solding them...and the repair shop it's an excuse

Regards
