Looks like they are dead heading a caboose at the front of 216 today and 489 is doing the honours.

Nice spot for a caboose behind 489. What fun!!!

489 wasted no time getting 216 up to speed today with a 10 minute late departure. Wonder if that caboose is headed to the car shop in Antonito.

Looks like the cars for the school freight are set up on the track over from the station. Next one begins week from Monday.

The 215 may be running a little late (remember...clock is an hour behind....should read 15:17:10). The parking lot had a bunch of cars in it earlier. Maybe they thought they had missed it and left.

I'm looking forward to catching 463 on the Chama cams later this afternoon. She's had a big week.

484 is cleaned, watered and coaled is sitting at the coaling dock waiting for 215 to get in and turned so can hook up for the Sunset Train tonight.

215 with the 463 stopped at the water plug before the station today.

After the quick drink 463 comes on in with the 30 minute late 215 and passes the waiting 484. Has still got the 9 car train from yesterday's 216.

Here's today's lot of video. Once again thanks to Sharon, Jeff and Larry G for all the great coverage during the days - yard cams to CDOT cams you catch it all!
