train cemetery印象

We had our own car, so it cost us nothing to visit the site, 5 minutes out of town. If your tour will make a quick stop there, also OK. But don't waste your time walking, much less paying someone to take you there, since it's just an abandoned train graveyard, with rusty cars full of graffiti.It could have been made into a nice attraction by the town, but as with many other similar sites in Bolivia, there isn't government interest in transforming it into a touristy place, and creating jobs/making money with it. Maybe in 10 years it will be similar to San Pedro de Atacama (neighbor Chile), with better infrastructure.It's worth 5 minutes and a few pictures, then go to the Salar or the Lagunas.

Kind of strange to see these train husks so close to the Salar. It's cool that you can climb all over the trains and take pictures but in the end the place is nothing too special. If it's already included in your tour then definitely check it out, but I don't know if I'd make the trip from Uyuni just to see this on my own.

First stop of the trip. A quick one. Trains are old and rusty and dismembered heavily graffiti on it on the sand. Its cool to climb to the top to take a pic but just be more careful. Not very interesting but good to take photo.
-
Best time to visit it is around sunset, with blue sky and orange color of the rusty trains. Bring a Go Pro if you have to take a fish-eye pic at the top of the train cart.

The cemetery is located amongst the towns rubbish dumps. The rusted train remains could have been something worth seeing and photographing if it wasn't for all the graffiti on the trains. There is not one single spot that you can photograph, that is not covered in graffiti.

this is a good photo stop, a strange plce, but if your not really interested in trains it might be a bit of a bore.. if you do the tour you will probably be brought here. its not a bad thing, not going to enthral every one....

I have loved trains ever since I was a child, and at 21 this was no different.Perhaps what I liked most about the site and why I call it Oxidized Art is the fact you do not see this anywhere else. What many in the rest of the world would protest as an eyesore or health risk (trains that have been literally shunted to the edge of the tracks, pushed off, and left for decades just outside of town) have been repurposed as an admission free, open air, unguarded and unguided tourist attraction. The train cemetery outside of Uyuni sings a siren song to the child in all of us: come play with the windswept abandoned trains in the desert, for if you do not, who else will?
-
These trains left oafter the diesel train came to take over and thanks to the extreme dry climate of Uyuni, they are not rotting away for many years to come. Hopefully the local people will leave the steel on the trains instead of cutting out pieces for personal use? The train cemetery is not protected as an tourist attraction.

Our guide Carlos from the Red Planet Guiding outfit showed us the Train Cemetery. Quite impressive and strange to see so many locks stranded in the desert. Definitely a must to visit.Place for great photos!

I would personally have given this train cemetery 5 stars, but my family insisted it was because I'm a bit of a rail buff. What fun! One can climb all over these 19th C. derelict engines and cars to your heart's content. Our 12 y.o. grandson loved it, and I think he wanted to stay all day.
