australfoto > On the Ouro Preto - Mariana tourist railway in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. The steam locomotive pulls the train on an 18 km section of track which was all but abandoned until renovation in 2006. The line connects the two colonial cities and has become an instant success with tourists to the area. The line is operated by mining giant Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (CVRD), which is a major employer in the region with several mines and cargo railroads. (Australfoto/Douglas Engle)
