This railroad operated a short detour of 1.7 km. running parallel to the main road from the Mill Station Collipulli Globe, located several blocks away, near the famous Viaduct Malleco. Operated with the first broad gauge electric locomotive, 1676, arrival in Chile in 1903, 2 shafts, built by AEG in Germany, which moved the bulk tanks between the station and the mill until 1984. At the Viaduct Malleco electrified, which is next to the mill, had room for only one driver, so that the mill had to be withdrawn. With over 70 years in service is the longest electric locomotive worked on trail wide. It was powered by an electric generator that supplied power to the mill and the power line to 450W. The command was kind Tram. The locomotive is still preserved in the Mill Collipulli.

The locomotive looks more carefully and with its pantograph in place. Until 2006 the machine was in an area where only the Mill could be seen from the road and without his pantograph. This photo was taken on November 28, 2009, and now I can not see it from the train, was placed in an area where the Mill can only be seen from the street that connects with the route to Angola. The guard who was that day allowed me to enter to make a decision closer, so from the gate and through the fence could take these photos.
