For now, this is the conclusion of our project with the Dom Pedro II railroad, started almost two years ago. We have a route that represents 20km of the original stretch of railroad that depicts the mid-1912s; where locomotives from the late 19th century were still running at full steam. Finally, we started the manufacture of a rare type that unfortunately no longer exists, a 1894 Brooks type 4-8-0 Mastodon, this was a luxury locomotive; as the old Central do Brasil railroad workers called them.
