I received some pictures today from Don Atkinson concerning the upcoming work session at Antonito next week but he included several shots of today's train. The railroad must really be doing a good business out of Antonito with 487 pulling 15 cars today. Seven coaches, the 4 premium cars, café and 3 open gons, the 487 must have put on quite a show going up the first incline toward Lava tank.

I've heard that earlier trains this week were also 15 cars long

Pete posted on another thread the passenger count.
Pete said "All coaches are limited to 10 riders - 9 revenue cars 90 total passengers." 3 open gones so no crowding!

Tom, your count is slightly off, its 11 revenue cars, 7 coaches and 4 premium, so 110 possible passengers and they also could have a few more in the seating section of the cafe.
