Although there are definitely 8 coaches on 216, I think a 9th might be staged so maybe another double header; we shall see. Also, why has 489 been sitting tender-first inside the house lately?

Train 216 departure: 484, 8 coaches - they are without the Parlor coach Colorado today. So that was what the extra coach was for. Wonder if there was an issue with 215 yesterday?

15 brought the consist of the Geology train out from the yard and probably took them down to the Wye.

Meanwhile 463 pulled 489 out from the east stall and then visited the pit for a fire clean.

It looks like there might be an extra this afternoon as 463 has backed down onto the coaches. Also 489 is hot again.
