Tren Paraguay Trailers

The Paraguayan railroad, created in 1861, fell in the late twentieth century in decline. Operated for decades by foreign companies and later by the Paraguayan State has been in a growing abandonment since the late 90s. Since then there have been projects of recovery, but the stations are empty and the main terminal was demolished late last year.

I really enjoyed the film. It inspired me to visit many of the sites in Paraguay which on doing so i certainly didn't regret. The film tackles the demise of the train in Paraguay and the emotions experienced by people who remember fondly those days of "The train".The film conveys this message beautifully through stunning footage of old stations, train workshops,booking halls, overgrown train routes and bridges. The sound takes you back with many interviews with people who had very vivid memories of what the train brought to there town. A difficult subject tackled very well and a real pleasure to watch. The only negative for me is that i didn't want it to end.
