    Pioneering stuff, there are some lovely preserved locos in Argentina (including many from the likes of North British and predecessors) but precious little operating, so this is nice to see. I'd love to visit the country again but I suspect it won't happen for at least the next 15 years...

    Good for them! There's something very Railway Adventure about it all. The road crossing sequences are brilliant.
