LucasMR, would one ever see Eldorado, Rumo or Brado engines on "the green cow", or since that's a slow train (without an engine branded in that partnership) would they just always use the older GE engines for those jobs? Any one of those newer locomotives would be a nice color combination alongside the line of green cars on the "cow" train.

Hi Kurt, thanks for the comments!
About the cellulose train (the "green cow") it´s a typical narrow gauge train, that run from Mato Grosso do Sul state to Santos harbor, in São Paulo state. From Mairink (São Paulo state) to Três Lagoas (city at Mato Grosso do Sul state, where the train is loaded) the lines are only narrow gauge. So, there is no way to run the Eldorado, Brado and Rumo units on this train. The old GE´s are still the favorites for the job, because they are narrow gauge engines, specially modified to run with this train.
