488 then pushes caboose and rider gon down to the short string of boxcars and then runs around to couple on. Had to leave it there. Assume train headed east to reach Cumbres before 215 passes that point.

Train 215 was 28 minutes late today. Then about 25 minutes later the school train arrived at the yard and waited by tank. Several minutes later it moved into the yard to the left of the main.

These are the kinds of action days that make me want to move to Chama (though I'd likely regret it in January!).

Thanks for the updates keeping track of the happenings.

Heart is in the narrow gauge country. Enjoy your videos too.
