October 23rd Yard activities

[Larry Sullivan]

Another peaceful looking chilly morning in Chama.

Already have a locomotive at the ash pit readying for the days work. Smoke got in the way and couldn't catch the number, but I think it's 489 - will correct if I'm wrong.

After taking on water, now back in front of the engine house.

488 also to the ash pit, watered and now back at the engine house.

Now working behind the engine house, will have to see what gets pulled into view eventually.

Stepped away for a moment, didn't see the actual move, but a cold locomotive now in front of the engine house that wasn't there a minute ago. Assuming 488 pushed it out there. Also a cold locomotive behind 489.

463 pulled out by 489, stopped now just past the ash pit out of sight.

All that moving was to allow 488 to come back in through the engine house, and once again is parked. 489 moved 463 back inside now.

A couple videos of the moving around described above. Three days after the season, a pretty quiet morning -- but at least still some activity.
