Fantastic photo.

Very nice railroad/culture shot.

I cannot recall ever seeing such a juxtapositional photograph of railroading and revolution. Great catch Daniel.

It's not every day you get steam locomotives and Che Guevara in a photo...

It's 2003, and in a western-hemisphere nation surrounded by countries to the north, west and south that have used diesel power for decades, the image of "el Che" stares at a part of his legacy.

Do they still use steam today?
|
Many thanks to all of you for your kind comments. Very much appreciated!
Unfortunately, almost all of the cuban steam locomotives have now been scrapped. Only a few of them survive on the island and are used on tourist trains.
