Right now it seems like 425 has her headlight on, and has a good head of steam. We might see some action soon.

425 moves about the yard, then couples to the small train she assembled yesterday. Work train possibly?

According to a post on the NGDF, it is indeed a work train for this week's Friends work secession, where 425 will haul a work train up into the narrows, while the Friends work crew does fire mitigation work along the right of way up to about Lobato.

Yes, it seems like that will happen. Did hear about the work train, just didn't know if it was tomorrow or today.

I was just wondering if there are any plans to restore sound to the cameras? I haven't seen or heard anything in a long time. Great action this morning and weekend. Thanks Jack for posting the pictures!

425 departs Chama with the work train bound for the narrows. It then has a lengthy pause to allow a speeder to roll into position to follow, then 425 and the work train get under way again.

No problem Bill, glad to be posting shots again.
With regards to your question, I would say that the sound will be restored only when Jason can get down to Chama. I am missing the sound a lot, we haven't had any for 2 years!

To answer the question on this work train, it will be every day at least this week. Don't know about session B next week.
