After today, there will be only 1 day of excitement left. Anyway, thinking positive, looks like an extra long train waiting for us today!

488 comes out to be the road engine this morning:

484 snuggles up behind 488.

It's now time for 484 to clean out her fire as 488 takes on water.

484 is really smoking it up at the pit!

Now that's the nicest smoke plume I have seen this year!

484 and 488 work hard to get a 10 coach 216 moving. It's so sad to think that we'll only witness this one last time this season, but we think that at this stage every year, don't we?

I have heard that today saw the final double header of the season, so tomorrow will see a single locomotive take out the last run. Either 487 or 484 will be at the head, and I'm guessing it will be 484.
