Hurrah! First argentinian stock we see!!

Those racks in the side looks as generator car. In other pictures I've seen they ar always coupled in one end of the train.

Probably, due to the lenght of trains and extreme climate conditions that Argentinian Railways serve, extra power for heating and air conditioning has to be provided.

I'll ask F (secrect name for fat Controller) if we still have money for this mission and I'll fly there.

F will have to sell a lot of stock to get the funds for such an expedition. But never say never... BTW I also thought a generator car or a restaurant but what about what looks like a camera clipped onto the side door window? There is also one at the front door.
