Up Tren a las Nubes - October 2004

In October 2004, with 3 friends from Australia, I travelled on the utterly fantastic Ramal C-14 in North West Argentina on the tourist train known as 'Tren a Las Nubes' - 'Train to the Clouds'. This service was then running from Salta to La Polvorilla viaduct and back. Since then the service has been in trouble but, when written in May 2008, hopefully it would soon restart. It truly is one of the world great railway journeys. Having been reminded of what a great journey this is the best of the photos taken on the day are presented below which, hopefully, give some impression of the line and the country is travels through. Most of these photographs were originally published in November 2004 but at a rather small size which did not do them justice, so they are now presented at a greater size. Most images are now 1000x750 pixels and are between 41 and 244kB in size. I hope you enjoy the journey!
