CDOT cam caught a plume as the 216 made its way up to Cumbres. Then, the other CODT cam caught the train spending some time at Cumbres.

I think the 216 may have picked up that white tanker. It is no longer in view of the cam. I'm pretty sure it was still there this morning.

(Remember: the clock is an hour behind)

This maybe a little off topic for this section, but does anyone know the frequency which the C&TS operates on I would like to have it in my radio for next week.

Sharon, the C&T went fully digital last year. And, I believe the signal is encrypted.

To my knowledge there isn't yet a scanner on the market for this type of system.

Today's videos. Only other train moves in the yard today were 487 and 488 both at the ash pit and for water. 487 now behind 488 on the left side shop track.
