FCAB train climbing Cumbre Pass, Chile
  •  Info all by Kabelleger -- Kabelleger (talk) 14:54, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Info FCAB (Ferrocarril de Antofagasta a Bolivia) transports large quantities of sulfuric acid from the port of Mejillones to Chile's copper industries in the back country, as well as copper plates back to the port of Antofagasta. On their way the trains have to cross the stunning scenery of Cumbre Pass, which links a junction near Prat with Mejillones.

 Comment This is an outstanding photo, but I think the colour balance is off (perhaps too magenta?) Fix that and I think this will get very wide support. Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:06, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Thanks for your response, but the environment there has a strong reddish tint (see e.g. 1 2 3 4, none of these pictures are by me). Also, the "black" parts of the locomotive don't show a red tint. Thus, I think the colors are more or less accurate. --Kabelleger (talk) 15:18, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Support I sit corrected. Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:34, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
