487 has emerged with smoke from its stall as crewman empties tender into loader by hand.

I saw 487 sitting out front briefly, then it was gone - thanks for the capture, now I know what happened! Also noted this morning the front end loader working around the coal pile, I guess scraping up all the bits and pieces. (just judging by the sound, can't see the pile). Also noted some of the crew working near the water tank, and they brought one of the speeders onto the coal tipple track near the Rogers. Just general yard cleaning.
