"Alpart (Alumina Partners) unit in Nain, Jamaica. Former Kaiser Bauxite locomotive was transferred to Alpart (Kaiser owned 65%) for use on a short line on the south side of the island, Kaiser is on the north side. Photo shows Alpart train running from port to plant, 11/9/89. Company bought GP35's years ago and presume the Baldwins are long out of service but probably just pushed into the jungle to rust like most Jamaica junk."
