An epic transfer has occurred between January 12 and 13, 2023 through the Bahía Blanca - Carmen de Patagones branch to help Tren Patagonico, since they are stopping their locomotives for maintenance.
Undoubtedly, I had decided to go and record this epic transfer, unusual, since said branch does not have train traffic and is only used, for the moment, to transfer formations between Bahía Blanca and Viedma and vice versa.
Locomotive 9077 had been working for the private company FEPSA (Ferroexpreso Pampeano) to move its freight trains, and had previously been at Ferrobaires with its passenger services.
On January 13, 2023, the machine arrived in Viedma to secure train No. 363 to Bariloche.
We can see the coverage from the outskirts of Stroeder (Buenos Aires Province) and Viedma (Río Negro Province).
Let's hope that this locomotive can ensure the services of the Patagonian Train!
While I was communicating with the personnel in charge, they told me that the transfer was near Villalonga. Being a few kilometers away, and knowing that the locomotive was going at a very low speed, I decided to enter said station, and from there take the dirt road that ran alongside the track, thinking that in a short time I would to be able to meet the train.
However, that was not to be, as they were coming at a good pace. Fortunately I was able to find it passing the Stroeder station (in 0:47) and from there follow it up to Viedma (almost 100 km away).
In the images, we can see the vegetation, and the large number of tamarisks that deteriorate the roads. Also, we can see that in that sector there was a large amount of area, produced by the felling of trees some time ago, of course it was a serious mistake.
Already at 4:50 we were close to the Casas station (next to San Blas Bay). We can see the general state of the station, completely abandoned and forgotten. To think, that the trains to Bariloche and Buenos Aires used to pass through here long ago, with the trains "El Arrayán" or "Lagos del Sur" of the extinct company "Ferrocarriles Argentinos".
At minute 8:00 we can see how the machine was about to cross a level crossing, and we see the large amount of sand mentioned. We were already close to the salt flats, where the road runs alongside it, something that can be seen at minute 9:40.
We were already getting closer to the Cardenal Cagliero station, at minute 12:00, the penultimate station before reaching Patagones, where the corresponding track change had to be made (minute 14:00) and then pull back to go to Viedma.
Immediately, a track fox was behind the locomotive, taking advantage of the transfer to head towards Viedma.
Already at minute 15:35 we see the aerial images of the Río Negro and the railway bridge. The traffic on both sides had to be previously stopped, and coordination with both jurisdictions to carry out this task, and thus allow the locomotive to circulate.
Having already arrived in the capital of Rio Negro, the corresponding maneuvers were carried out so that said locomotive is in charge of taking passenger train No. 363 to Bariloche, which you can see in the following video.
This video was recorded and filmed by me, with my SONY AX40, SONY AX700 cameras and my DJI drone, and I edited it with Wondershare Filmora software days later for your enjoyment.
