Mitsubishi/Mihari steam locomotive no. 117, named "José Melton Aguirre", 750 mm gauge, 2-10-2, built in 1963, restored by the Amigos del Ferrocarril, on display in Rio Gallegos, now again in bad condition. This place is in the same venue, where the port and railway system managed by the company "Yacimientos Carboníferos Fiscales" –YCF– used to stand. It's called the "Roberto Galian Railway Museum" and shows the history of the steam locomotives used in these latitudes and of the Río Turbio branch line. Seemed to be closed.

Laguna Azul - between Rio Gallegos and Strait of Magellan better view in large!

ok, it's actually green, not 'azul' ;-)

A cloudy evening at Hosteria Kaiken, Lago Fagnano - Tierra del Fuego, Patagonia HFF and a happy weekend to all ;-) See PiP for next day:
