Work continues on the Locomotive 463 project. The locomotive, tender body, cab and wheel sets will be moved from Monte Vista to Antonito by the end of March. Once the locomotive is fired up in Antonito it will be broken in on ballast train service. Tickets are selling well for the May 15th charter.
