Caption - Osvaldo Sanchez sugar mill in Cuba had steam on standard and 2 foot 6 inch gauges. The first visit in March 1981 saw a number of locos in use including 2-8-0 no.1310 (Baldwin 52574/1919). Unusually for Cuba this loco sported a maroon livery. Like most locos at the sugar mills it was oil fired and fairly well maintained receiving regular maintenance outside of the annual cane harvesting period.
