No more Dario ,no more .....

Sadly, not.

The extremely dry and dusty conditions of this area show up extremely well on the dark livery of the locomotives, far more so than they would do so on a lighter colour.

How funny! Actually the color scheme of this locomotive was just, of light colors. Smoke, tunnels, and extreme working conditions made them black. This is the paint scheme, please chack: http://www.railpictures.net/photo/421621/

Humble apologies, Senor Saidman, from Nottingham UK. This is the first Ferronor picture I have seen and, as soon as I had posted my comment, I then searched for other Ferronor pictures. I immediately realised my mistake - I was not trying to make a bad-taste joke about the colours. But I couldn't get the comment back! So a big thank you for your gracious response.
Separately, please might I ask a question. Do you know the identity of the second locomotive? Is it the same type, or something different?

Do not worry, Mr John Whittingham. My answer was funny precisely because of the marked situation of Ferronor's clear color scheme, and its extremely harsh working conditions. Unfortunately this railway no longer works because it was destroyed by a flood that ravaged the rails and also the towns.
Separately, the rear locomotive is exactly the same as the front: both are General Motors GR-12 manufactured in the '60s, with the reliable EMD 12-567 engine. Regards!
