  10. Albé (1995) is correct, in that #485 was built in 1963. The grab-iron attached horizontally across the front of the nose on #485, as seen in the Albé photo at https://www.flickr.com/photos/alcoalbe/6070263169/in/photostream/ is ALCo, not MLW. In addition, in Whetham (2008), at page 50, the caption for the builder's plate of MLW M-6978-03 states that it was for FCHH #436 – not any FCCSA loco. Thus, there were only two MLW locos on the FCCSA. Accordingly, #483 and #484 should be MLW Factory #M6078-04 (1974) and #M6078-05 (1974), respectively. No. 485 was re-gauged and re-numbered from either standard gauge #355 or #359; the remaining nine of standard gauge ##350-360 being otherwise accounted for.

  28. There are three different passenger coach types, identified in this discussion as “A”, “B”, and “C.” Type “A” includes five narrow gauge coaches (##1531, 1532, 1552, 1799, and 1808). Type “A” coaches have slightly curved sides, curved roof ends, and rounded roof corners. Type “A” coaches also match the architecture of the Cravens Ltd. coaches seen in the bottom front cover and top page 67 photos of Whetham (2008). Railways of Peru, Volume 2.

    Types “B” and “C” all have flat sides, flat roof ends, and squared roof corners. Type “B” includes 12 narrow gauge coaches (##1530, 1533, 1534, 1535, 1536, 1651, 1652, 1851, 1854, 1861, 1863, and 1865). Type “B” coaches additionally have (or had) a small flange between the roof and the sides. Furthermore, at least five Type “B” coaches have been observed bearing Kinki Sharyo Co. builder's plates.

    Type “C” includes the remaining 39 narrow gauge coaches and all 12 standard gauge coaches (51 coaches total). Type “C” coaches are similar to Type “B” coaches, except for their lacking the small flange between the roof and the sides.

    The 1999 inventory of locomotives and rolling stock includes seven standard gauge baggage cars made in England, 19 narrow gauge coaches made in Japan, 14 narrow gauge coaches made in Romania, and 47 standard gauge coaches made in Romania. §§3.2.1.1, 3.2.2.1, “Material Tractivo, Material Rodante de Concesion,” at pp. 95-96, Anexo No. 3, Proceso de Promoción de la Inversión Privada en Enafer S.A.: Contrato de Concesión [“Concession Tractive Stock, Rolling Stock,” Annex No. 3, ''Process for the Promotion of Private Investment in Enafer, S.A.: Concession Contract''] (July 19, 1999), contract file pp. 2124-25, at, https://portal.mtc.gob.pe/transportes/concesiones/documentos/contarto%20ferrocarril%20sur%20y%20sur%20oriente.pdf (Mar. 24, 2021).

    In view of the foregoing breakdowns, the five Type “A” coaches appear to correspond to five of the seven Cravens baggage cars, apparently having been rebuilt into coaches and re-gauged to 914 mm. The 12 Type “B” coaches correspond to 12 of the 19 Kinki Sharyo coaches. The 51 Type “C” coaches correspond to 51 of the 61 Astra Arad coaches, some of which were re-gauged from standard gauge to 914 mm.

    An additional two of the 61 inventoried Astra Arad coaches may have been rebuilt into Baggage Car ##1971 and 1972 since 1999. There had been no Astra Arad baggage cars listed in the 1999 inventory.

    The number of Cravens, Kinki Sharyo, and Astra Arad coaches listed herein is 68 [5 + 12 + 51]. The number of passenger cars reported in 2002 is also 68. “When Safety Is the Bottom Line,” 8 Latin Tracks at page 27. For that reason, the balance of the 1999 inventoried coaches are not likely to be in use, or perhaps even in existence.

(Kinki Sharyo plates are oval and read: “OSAKA JAPAN / KINKI / 19__ [year].” Cobrasma plates are rectangular and bear the image of freight car trucks, with the word “COBRASMA” within the truck frame.

  34. The 1999 inventory which listed equipment turned over to PeruRail does not set forth any baggage cars other than the seven which were built in England, five of which were rebuilt into narrow gauge coaches. See, §§3.2.1.1, 3.2.2.1, “Material Tractivo, Material Rodante de Concesion,” at pp. 95-96, contract file pp. 2124-25. It is not known whether the omission of Astra Arad baggage cars was a clerical oversight, or whether two Astra Arad coaches were converted to baggage cars.
  35. Seven standard gauge baggage cars made in England had been turned over to PeruRail in 1999. §§3.2.1.1, “Material Tractivo, Material Rodante de Concesion,” at page 95, contract file page 2124. Only five were converted to narrow gauge coaches, leaving two standard gauge Cravens baggage cars.

  41. There are different opinions regarding the best spelling of certain Quechua names, such as Cusco, because the Spanish alphabet does not perfectly represent every sound of spoken Quechua. Originally, Quechua, had not been a written language. In order to reduce Quechua to writing, the Spanish alphabet was adopted. Spanish had been the first written language to come into contact with Quechuan speakers. However, there are some differences between the sounds of spoken Quechua and those sounds which correspond to the Spanish alphabet. Therefore, there are inevitable different opinions regarding the best Spanish spelling of some Quechua names. – For example: whether Cusco would be better spelled with “Q”s instead of “C”s or a “Z” instead of the “S.”
  42. The FC Lima-Lurin's next previous locomotive (#6) had been acquired in 1936. Whetham (2008), at page 34.
  43. By 1943, the FCCSA had 6 locomotives on its roster, which would have had to include the reacquisition of 1st 122. See, Bate, Irma Grace (1945). “Railways of Peru,” at page 4, 1945 World Trade in Commodities, Vol. 3, Part 1, No. 9 (December 1945), at, https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015036628082&view=1up&seq=104&q1=peru (Mar. 21, 2021).
  44. This locomotive had been FC Casa Grande #13 and, subsequently, FC Lima-Lurin #4. In January 1926, the FC Casa Grande had still had all of its original 18 locomotives. Book: Railways of South America, Part 2: Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guianas, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela . 256 . Long, W. Rodney . U.S. Dept. of Commerce . 1927 . 2021-03-31 . As of January 1926, the [Casa Grande] road had 18 locomotives .... And in October 1927, the FC Lima-Lurin obtained its next locomotive after its #4, namely #5. Whetham (2008), at page 34. Therefore, the sale occurred in one of those two adjacent years, 1926 or 1927.
  45. The FC Lima-Lurin sold two locomotives in 1956 or 1957. Compare, Book: World Railways . 4th 1956-57 . 308 . Sampson . Henry . Sampson Low's "World Railways" Ltd. . 1956 . F.C.

  48. A 1974 report states that Locomotive 2nd 123 (ex-#126) had its “plate switched.” Book: World of South American Steam. 18. Christian & Mills. 1974. No further details were provided. However, it does appear odd that the shop number of Locomotive 2nd 123, built in 1955 (Henschel 26444), is numerically less than the shop number of Locomotive 2nd 122, built four years earlier, in 1951 (Henschel 26484).

  50. Boat Eponyms: Chucuito [''chuqi-huito''] = Quechua metal-fruit tree, perhaps metal in the area of fruit trees; Coya [''koya''] = Quechua queen, wife of the Sapa Inca; Inca = largest empire in pre-Columbian America; Manco Cápac = 1st Sapa Inca, ca. 1200-1230; Ollanta [''Ollantay''] = an ancient Inca play; Puño = Spanish fist, perhaps referring to the shape of Puno bay; Yapura = Japurá River; Yavarí = Javary River; Zuñiga = unknown eponym, Zuñiga is a common surname in the region.
  51. Gross Tons represents the sum of the number of cubic feet in the hull plus the number of cubic feet in enclosed spaces above the hull, divided by 100. It is not the actual weight of the boat. See, Tonnage.
