Ferrocarril de Tacubaya

Ferrocarril de Tacubaya (Railway of Tacubaya) was a one-mile-long 60-centimeter gauge [Moody 1959 p.211] line serving an amusement park in the Tacubaya district of Mexico City. The line was built by Fernando de Teresa in 1896. Passengers were carried in several designs of roofed cars approximately 5 meters long. [Best 1968 p.75] The locomotives were smaller than those used at Disneyland. The first locomotive was based on Decauville equipment, and the 6-ton 4-4-0 was the smallest ever built by Baldwin for commercial purposes. The line was converted to part of Mexico City's standard-gauge electric tramway system in 1910. [Best 1968 p.78]
