Museo de la Estacion Central del Ferrocarril Carlos Antonio Lopez, Asuncion, Paraguay

Train nostalgia

It's a small but informative museum. I joined a guided tour and there was no doubt about the guide's knowledge and passion for railroads in Paraguay. The British supplied the technology for this early era of rail transportation. There's only one locomotive and a couple of wagons, but there's plenty of paraphernalia that create a genuine atmosphere of an era long gone.

    Just passing by. like 10 min
    It's not a really safe area with the place nearby. What is interesting is that this train was the first railway of South America thanks to England I guess. Abandonned for a long time. But they keep it without maintenance. Sad. Some events below sometimes.
