Remarks & Notes

The FCA's flagship passenger train is the Expreso del Sur, with two weekly round trips linking the railroad's hub of Oruro with Villazón on the Argentine border. Here, the train stands ready for its 3:30PM departure from the station at Oruro. The car visible on the right belongs to the Wara Wara del Sur (Wara Wara meaning "star" in the country's native Aymara language) a lower-class train complementing the Expreso on the Oruro-Villazón route and making for a total of four weekly round trips between the two cities.

Note: I removed some power poles and wires that were protruding from the top of the locomotive.
