463 Pre-Season Charter

[Tim Tennant]

The long wait to see Locomotive 463 operating again is almost over. After a decade of inactivity and approximately two and a half years undergoing a rebuild the 463 will be the star of a pre-season charter over the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad.

Ride behind the 463 on what will be its first revenue charter after undergoing restoration which was an undertaking of the Friends. Witness the sights and sounds as the “Mudhen” once again steams through the San Juan Mountains of Southern Colorado and Northern New Mexico under late spring conditions!

This special offering by the Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, Inc. will feature a 9:30am departure from Antonito on a one-way westbound trek to Chama. Numerous photo runbys along the route will be planned. A BBQ chicken lunch will be served at Osier and is included in the price of the ticket. Each passenger will also receive a commemorative 463 cap! Reserve now as seats are limited!
