Na tomto místě jsme vystály důlek. Nejednou jsme prohlásili, že jsme na čekané i nějací dravci si nás vyhlédli jako potravu. Ale za dva dny, které jsme tu strávili čekáním, na vlak jedoucí ve správném směru jsme to štěstí neměli. Ono vůbec jsme měli spíše štěstí na vlaky jedoucí z přístavu Mejillones do dolů ve vnitrozemí Chile. Opačným směrem bychom se vlaků prsty na jedné ruce dopočítali.

Na snímku z 10. listopadu 2022 sledujeme odjíždějící nákladní vlak o 35 nákladních vozech společnosti FCAB. Vlak v čele se stroji FCAB 3211 a 3207 stoupá pomalu smyčkou Cumbre pass od přístavu Mejillones do jednoho z Chilských dolů a velmi pravděpodobně se jedná o důl – Chuquicamata, kam se převáží i prázdné plošinové vozy s přípravky na uchycení plátů mědi, které se v dolech naloží. Kyseliny sírové, které se převáží v cisternových vozech, převeze společnost více jak 3 miliónů tun během roku a tato přeprava stále narůstá. Důl Chuquicamata se nachází v těsné blízkosti města Calama a cesta z přístavu sem vlaku trvá něco málo přes 16 hodin (vzdušnou čarou 183,4km, po kolejích cca 320 km).

Lokomotivy řady 32xx pochází od firmy Progress Rail Services Corporation, vlastněná firmou Caterpillar. Lokomotivy mají označení výrobce EMD GT 42AC a v Chile se jim přezdívá podle firmy, která je vyrobila „Progress“. Jedná se o mladé lokomotivy 3211 vyrobená v roce 2019 a 3207 je o rok starší tj. r 2018. Celkem má FCAB ve flotile 14 těchto lokomotiv.
Lokomotivy mají 12 válcový motor s označením 12-710, lokomotiva je 20,3 metrů dlouhá, její maximální rychlost je 100 km/h, a pojme 5000 litrů paliva, její váha je 120 tun, tažná síla lokomotivy se uvádí 3 207 kW.

At this point, we stood a hole. More than once we declared that we were waiting and some predators looked for us as food. But in the two days we spent here waiting, we were not so lucky for a train going in the right direction. Anyway, we were rather lucky with the trains going from the port of Mejillones to the mines in the interior of Chile. In the opposite direction, we could count the number of trains on the fingers of one hand.

In the image from November 10, 2022, we are watching the departing freight train of 35 freight cars of the FCAB company. A train led by FCAB machines 3211 and 3207 climbs slowly through the Cumbre pass loop from the port of Mejillones to one of the Chilean mines, and it is very likely a mine - Chuquicamata, where empty flat cars with preparations for fixing the copper sheets, which are used in the mines, are also transported will load. The company transports more than 3 million tons of sulfuric acid, which is transported in tank cars, during the year, and this transportation is still increasing. The Chuquicamata mine is located very close to the town of Calama, and the journey from the port to here by train takes a little over 16 hours (183.4 km as the crow flies, approx. 320 km by rail).

The 32xx series locomotives are from Progress Rail Services Corporation, owned by Caterpillar. The locomotives have the manufacturer's designation EMD GT 42AC and are nicknamed "Progress" in Chile after the company that produced them. These are young locomotives 3211 manufactured in 2019 and 3207 is a year older, i.e. 2018. In total, FCAB has 14 of these locomotives in its fleet.
The locomotives have a 12-cylinder engine with the designation 12-710, the locomotive is 20.3 meters long, its maximum speed is 100 km/h, and it can hold 5000 liters of fuel, its weight is 120 tons, the traction power of the locomotive is stated to be 3,207 kW.
