By the smoke and sound they have started #15 up.

And indeed #15 has come out of hibernation.

With a double 'blat' the 15 is out and about.

Got it at the ashpit while out and about.

488 and 463 tenders are now sitting on the siding next to the main.

15 is over by the south side of enginehouse working.

So where did they put the 2 box cars that were on the connector track, deep in south yard.

Yes they went into the South yard, well out of camera view. Looks like #15 is now parked in back of the shop too. I'll get video of all moves put up later.

Looks like 19 is out and about over at the other end of the line.

This is the ultimate conundrum!! Internal combustion 2 Steam 0!!

Looks like the bridge gang is finishing up for the day now. Later a speeder waits for some of the machinery to move about under the lengthening shadows.

11-02-15 Locomotive #15 was started up this morning, after warming a bit they went to work moving the box cars from the connector track to the South yard. After that the tenders for first 463, then 488 were brought from the back of the shop and placed on the connector track. 484's tender was then moved from in front of the shop to the same track as the other two. After that 15 was behind the shop, started a couple times during the day - but could not tell what they were doing.

Of course, I had to be away from my desk all day yesterday. Thanks for replay! Did they put 15 back in the roundhouse last night ?

John #15 was left on the South side of the shop, saw some smoke a couple times in the afternoon, but loco never came back to the North side.
