Making surprise entrance from the North yards. 489 appears to be testing its running gear and then takes on coal.

Remember to look for Sharon. our video editor, waving from tomorrow's train. A bit late this morning, but 489 will still make it to Osier in time for lunch.

Take a look in the observation car and you'll find Tinder Bear taking in the sights.

Many thanks to Jonathan for reminding me that it is "Cinder Bear" and not "Tinder Bear."

There is always something relaxing when you can see what's coming and going in the yards. Patience, Train 215 will be rolling in soon.

Waiting for the train? Take a side-journey to Roger Hogan's submissions in the General Discussion section. He does a wonderful job of chronicling the most recent Engineer\Fireman school. Just Click on the link:
