TICLIO Cruce Ferroviario más alto del Mundo. 4818 M.S.N.M. (O al menos lo era hasta el 2006, año en que fue superado por un cruce ubicado en China ) Esta foto es del 2014, asi es como solia verse nuestra cordillera blanca, desgraciadamente en la actualidad es dificil poder volver a ver este escenario en Ticlio. Ticlio (or Anticona) is a mountain pass and the highest point of the central road of Peru (km 120), in the Andes mountains, reaching a height of 4,818 m. It used to be a railway crossing loop on the Ferrocarril Central Andino (FCCA) in Peru whose main claim to fame was being the highest railway junction in the world. The railway now crosses the pass through a nearby tunnel at a lower elevation (4783 m) which enters a different valley than the highway on the eastern side of the pass.
