Three hot this morning?

As of 7:00AM, there's one locomotive in front of engine house stall 2, one out back on track 1, and smoke coming out of the engine house stack over track 2, as well as smoke continuously swirling inside visible through the open door for stall 1. May be an interesting morning

I'd be interested to know what's been up with the loco in the engine house on track two. It has been under steam, but they've been rolling it out a few dozen yards, then back inside. Next day, same thing. Yesterday, inside all day. Today, more smoke from the exhaust stack than earlier in the week. Perhaps a repair issue is closer to resolution?

Hi Bruce,
I have not heard that anything is wrong. I have observed that the 484 has not been in the rotation over the past several days. It was offline last year. But I think it has been fully overhauled. It has made at least one round trip recently. Perhaps somebody more knowledgeable of Chama operations can fill us in.
