NOTES | the gauge of 762mm to which the line at Port Kunda was built was unusual for Russia, which adopted 750mm as its usual standard for narrow gauge lines. After standing derelict at Port Kunda for many years the loco was rescued by the Estonian Railway Museum in 1997 and brought to Lavassaare. |
