Touristic Train in Minas Gerais, Brazil
Ouro Preto is the old gold town (late 1600s) near Belo Horizonte. Easily reached by bus form Belo Horizonte and makes for a good day trip.
There is a new (for me) train available from Ouro Preto to the nearby old mining town of Mariana, founded in 1696 and Minas Gerais’ first capital.
