Pictures of El Nariz del Diablo, the most dangerous train ride on earth (apparently)

You used to be able to sit on top of the train but then some people died so I just got up there for a quick shot while the train was stopped.
A good substitute for the top of the train
This is when the giant train engine came off of the track... hmmm... before the dangerous part.. hmmm. It was amazing, though, they got it back on in about half an hour and just pulled the rest of the train through the dirt over the bad patch of tracks. Really pretty hilarious!

All the people milling around the tipped train
The dangerous part... the actual pics looking down don´t look like much. There are railway switchbacks almost the entire way up this mountain. It was high, definetly, but I gotta say I´ve been on way WAY sketchier bus rides.
