10/30/17 Some yard movement today
Posted: Mon Oct 30, 2017 11:53 amJust got home and looks like 15 has hauled 487 down to the tank. Will be able to process the stills and maybe video once they are done.
After this the 15 moved over to the west stall and went through and hooked to the locomotive body which was on the south side and pulled in into the house. Again this could be either 484 or 488. With this accomplished the 15 now comes back out and grabs the 487 and moves it back to the west lead. Whether we are going to see smoke from the 487 today or later in the week is anyone's guess at this point.
