Dona Joaninha

Guarulhos, Brazil · built 1940

Dona Joaninha or Estrada de Ferro Sorocabana 6 is a steam locomotive (with the uncommon 2-6-4 wheel arrangement) that is now on static display in Guarulhos, State of São Paulo, Brazil. Constructed in 1940, it was used to move sugar cane across Brazil until the 1960s. A scrap dealer purchased it around 1976, and it was then put on static display around 2000. After falling into disrepair, it was restored in 2020.
