After a wet and cold holiday is over the sun returns right on schedule! :grin: Sill captures show the new adjusted view from the South tipple cam and one at the depot. Looks like all is set for the 10:00 departure.

Larry's video will be posted later in the day of 216's departure.

Meanwhile the track speeder is captured leaving Antonito. Sun has replaced fog and snow at Cumbres too.

It's a parallel world on the narrow gauge....64 miles of parallel RR tracks connect the two scenes... Smoke plumes and then both 215 and 216 are out on the main!!

Notice Time Stamp on Cumbres Cam. Smoke in the air and vehicles confirm 216 is at the top.

It's now around 3:00 local time and judging by the vehicles Train 215 is in the area.
