11-15-16 Smoke Building from shop stack

[Larry Sullivan]

Looks like they are stoking the fires in 489 this morning, we should see some activity today I would think.

Of course just as I post that, 489 comes out of the house and is now in front of 484 on the East shop lead.

And 489 has now put 484 back into the West shop stall.

489 has been to the ash pit for a good cleaning, now down for a drink.

Now 489 headed out of the yard light, off to unknown work.

Looks like 19 and hoppers may be sitting near the water tank.

Just logged on to see 489 head back out of Chama.

Looks like 19 is still sitting near the tank at 1535 EST.

At 4:20. #489 went back into the west stall of the engine house after a thorough ash dump and cleaning. No coal smoke visible as it backed away from the ash pit, just steam. Is this her swan song for 2016?

Hard to say, either 487 or 489 have to be ready for the Christmas train in Chama.
