- 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.

- Products were moved between the islands and mainland on two boats, the “Manuel J. Cobos” and “Josefina Cobos.” Both are variously referred to as a sloop (balandra) or pilot’s boat (pailebote), a smaller double masted schooner. The "Manuel J. Cobos" served as the principal means of communication with the mainland.
