Cuba (March 2001) Cuba (March 2001)440 - Ifrain Alfonso: This is the mill with Cuba's biggest active steam engines. #1850 and #1910 are engines of the Mikado-class. Formerly they were in use for FCC services. In Ifrain Alfonso they found a new home. The lines of this mill are not so spectacular but sometimes the big locomotives make it feel like mainline...

| All kind of transport vehicles assembled at one point... (#1635) | One of the best spots is the small stone bridge near FCC-station St.Maria. | |

|
| #1850 waiting with an empty at St.Maria junction for crossing an FCC-train. | Here on it's way back to the mill with a loaded train near Pozo. | |
 |
 |
|
| Once again the big ones: #1850 at St.Maria junction ... |
... and #1910 in Pozo. #1910 was build in 1925, #1850 is ten years younger. |
| Cuba at it's best: #1850 hauling a loaded train back to the mill... |
