Thanks for keeping us up-to-date on the C&TS. I was wondering if the new Lobato Trestle could handle more than one engine at a time. Is this just for show or is it necessary?

I believe 8 passenger cars is the maximum for one locomotive from Chama to Cumbres. They had 11 cars that day.

Doug, The "new" Lobato Trestle has the same restrictions as the "old". It was repaired after the fire following the original design.
