Do not know what it means but I am seeing a fair amount of smoke in back of the engine house. Its 15 and it looks like the tender of 488 is sticking out in front of the stall.

Now that 15 has come around its the tender it moved to beside the round house.

488 now sitting where #15 has been in front of shop, and now hooking up to the loco in front of the roundhouse- 463 I believe, looks like they will move that one inside.

Indeed now 463 in the shop, 488 in front of roundhouse where 463 had been parked, and 15 back in it's spot and shutdown.

Review of the days activities: The 15 went behind the engine house and shoved 488 partially out through the doors, the 15 then went behind the engine house and retrieved the tender of 488 and parked it beside the round house. Then he took the long way around and grabbed the 488 and put it into the spot where the 15 had been parked, then went over and grabbed the 463 and took it into the engine house and finally took the 488 and placed it in front of the round house where 463 had been parked. Once all done 15 went back to its spot and shut down.
