José Smith Comas - rusty steam

"José Smith Comas" south of Cárdenas is sugar mill no. 315 of Cuba, its prerevolutionary name was "Progreso". It's the last sugar mill museum I will show from this journey. These locomotives already received anti-rust protection!

A great conclusion set to your series on the sugar mills. These would have to be the rustiest locomotives of all you've shown, I have to wonder how long ago they received the anti-rust treatment!

I have to admit, it's only the last museum, but some sugar mill images will still follow ;-)) Many thanks George. If I look at this image I'm thinking about a anti-rust treatment for myself too......

Se aprecia que fueron tratadas con antioxidante. Lo de “Progreso” no parece fuera premonitorio

José Manuel Polo replied to José Manuel Polo:

Yo sí fui (premonitorio) con Fidel. Mis dos íntimos amigos de niños consideraban que el de Castro sería un golpe más en Sudamérica y duraría meses. Jugamos a adivinos y yo opiné que duraría mucho tiempo. Acerté. Mis dos amigos fallecieron antes que Castro.

Berny replied to José Manuel Polo:

He was an extraordinary person and politician. I've read a lot about and from him and have greatest respect for his life and ideas. In his last years he wrote his "Refexiones" about many actual worldwide problems, which showed great wisdom and prospicience.
