7. Complete Decauville Rail System wheel, Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, 2015

Description:
Two surviving Decauville Rail System wheels, embossed with “Decauville Aine Petit-Bourg IS80,” and found near the ingenio site, are today in the collection of a hotel in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno. Traction-powered rail systems designed for transporting harvested intact cane stalks from the fields employed long platform trucks with eight wheels on 20 inch gauge tracks of 14 lb rails with fixed sleepers. Each cart with iron baskets held up to 1300 lbs and was pulled by oxen tethered with long yolks on each side of the track.

9. Modern Mural with Cobos on Horseback Overlooking the Hacienda Water System

Description:
Water was transported from interior highland sources to the processing plant in an elaborate and lengthy system of canals, aqueducts, conduits, and pipes. This modern mural is found on the wall of a local restaurant directly behind the town football stadium showing Cobos on horseback with cisterns, pipes and El Junco in the background.

10. Smoke Stack Base 2016

Description:
The largest preserved feature is an approximately 3.5 m² by 4 m high structure which may have been part of the tall central building that dominated the historic ingenio. This structure may have been vented by the chimney in the historic photo. Constructed of finished volcanic rock and mortar, it has an arched opening on its western side which leads into a deep pit which likely functioned as the combustion chamber.
