NOTES | Villa General Belgrano, some 100km south west of Cordoba, has a large German and Swiss influence, incuding some from survivors of the battleship Graf von Spree, which was scuttled in the River Plate in 1939. The German influence accounts for the name of the Hotel Bremen, in front of which this German locomotive is plinthed and kept in good condition. |
