CP 2-6-4T No. 077 sits in the branch platform at Nine station about to return to Braga with the delightful set of antique coaches which seemed to form many of the trains on the line. In the background is the small sub-shed, only one of whose tracks still seems to be in place, though still used. The main Minho line goes off to the left of the picture, eventually to Monção by the Spanish border. Saturday 8th November 1969.
