Diesel going east

Unread postby Allan Kirkpatrick » Fri May 27, 2022 8:39 am

I just saw the diesel and 2 fire suppression speeders leave the yard going east at 9:34 am.
Any ideas what is happening?

Diesel #19 just pulled Diesel # 15 off to Antonito would be my guess! Maybe #15 will return later with the Chama passenger cars! JMO

Do the two diesels have MU capability?

Without sound its hard to say, but here was a crew in 15's cab, so would think both were online. Also if it is to get 15 east to bring cars back, why have 19 pull it, it can run on its own. As I noted in my thread, can a single diesel pull a full train of 8+ cars up the grade westbound?
