NS 098: 10 Locomotives bound for South America!

[Minimize the Video window for better quality!]
NS 098 heads Eastbound with 10 brand new engines from MRS, (Malha Ferrovia da Regiao Sudeste) Logistica, a Brazilian company. The power is a solid line of C38EMI locomotives.
The engines are riding on trucks that are used to get them to where they will be shipped, and when they get to their new home, the wider guage trucks will be installed.
The power for this train was D9-40CW#9507

Awesome video. I work at MRS Logística S.A., this name "MRS" isn't a acronym, there aren't dots between the letters, just MRS Logística S.A.

Oh, wow. Its interesting to see some of the videos up of the MRS locomotives in action over there in South America.

Dude, I caught 10 M.R.S. Logistica AC44i locomotives on flatcars on NS 388 at Collier Yard in Petersburg, Virginia! It was so awesome! I would send you a video response, but I use Dailymotion now, so I can't do that. Sorry!

Regarding the paint scheme of M.R.S. Logistica, it kinda resembles Montana Rail Link and CSXT, but this paint scheme is MUCH flashier than either of the two railroads will ever be!

[Hickler90]

Yeah I agree with you there,the paint scheme is pretty wild. Its a shame no class 1s use anything like that here...people like colors, it would help promote the company better.

Segundo o livro de José Emílio de Castro H. Buzelin de nome "A Ferrovia de Minas, Rio e São Paulo" em nenhum momento descreve o que significa a sigla, concordo com CarColosletti é um nome próprio da empresa.

[CarColosletti]

MRS não é uma sigla, é um nome... MRS Logística apenas.

@CarColosletti - E qual seria???

[CarColosletti]

@leandromoreira1990 MRS não é sigla de Minas Rio São Paulo

[leandromoreira1990]

For information, MRS logistics (Minas Rio e São Paulo Logistics) standard 1,75 yds.
