Episode of 'ANDO EN TREN' (RIDING TRAINS) with the memorable journey of the Railbus Talca Constitucion service (Buscarril, in Spanish), also commercially known as the last branch. This route was inaugurated in stages from 1892 to 1915, it is the only branch with permanent passenger transport service and a survivor of the disappearance of services of the Chilean State Railroad Company.
The trip begins at the 'Talca' station, a place that serves the 'Terrasur' train (Santiago - Chillán) and this Railbus service. During the trip we skirt the Maule river with beautiful landscapes: vineyards, views of the river, hills. The main stations are 'González Bastías', 'Forel' and the end in the city of 'Constitución', known for the Stone of the Church that we went to visit to see the sunset.
The unit of the trip is a 'FerroStaal ADit 250' railbus built in 1961 in Germany. The train has a capacity for 80 passengers and is powered by a diesel engine. The episode is featured by the book 'Iris the sound of shells'. If you like what I do, you will love my books.
