Peruvian Railways

This might seem a strange interest, but I do find Peruvian Railways quite fascinating. Probably the combination of stunning landscapes and great engineering!

I would like to make a small Peruvian layout, but am stuck at the first hurdle as there doesn't seem to be anything available.

So, if anyone has, or knows where to get any models or even just the drawings and dimensions of the stock, I would be very interested.

These are some pictures I took at Aguas Calientes on the 3ft gauge line from Cusco. The locomotives are Alco and Montreal Locomotive Works (MLW) products. I would particularly like to make a model of the MLW DL535-B low nose locomotives, such as this pair 487 and 352.
