Ride Eastern Cuba’s Narrow Gauge Railcar—Following in Adolf Hungrywolf’s Footsteps!

Описание: Explore Cuba’s Forgotten Sugar Mill Railway! A Ride Through History with Rare Footage.

Step aboard rail bus (karahata) #50 for a journey along the narrow-gauge tracks of Rafael Freyre, once part of a vast 60 km network supporting a bustling sugar mill north of Holguín.
Closed in 2003, the mill’s legacy lives on through local passenger routes to Potrelillo, Jobal, Peluda, and La Sierra.

Relive the past with insights from Canadian Adolf Hungrywolf, who worked as a locomotive driver here in 1999 during the "safra" harvest.
Back then, Baldwin steam locomotives hauled 30–40 sugarcane wagons up steep gradients with no train brakes—just locomotive power!

Thanks to Hungrywolf’s rare two-hour footage and expert contributions, this video recorded in 2023 offers an unparalleled glimpse into Cuba’s railway history.
Don’t miss this unforgettable journey through time!
