Reviews for Locomotiva in Itajubá are mixed, primarily highlighting that the engine is a replica rather than an authentic historical train. Some visitors express disappointment that it is a 'simulacrum' and not a legitimate piece of railway history like those found in nearby towns such as Piranguinho or Maria da Fé. The site is located next to the original railway station, which some reviewers describe as being in a state of neglect. While it serves as a local point of interest, it is noted as being less unique than other regional attractions and potentially expensive for what it offers. Overall, it is seen as a brief stop for those interested in the visual of a locomotive, though history enthusiasts may find it lacking in authenticity.
