Looks like a nice dry and sunny day to ride is getting underway. A day that makes you really wish to be there.....,

The speeder today when out ahead of the train, guess acting as a slide patrol vs fire patrol.

The 489 was putting out a lot of brownish, black smoke on departure by the time he was at the water tower you could not see anything of the train.

Doesn't the Goose come back over today? I would think it would be ahead of 215 but seems not.

Looks like 215 came down the valley ahead of rain showers arriving at 4:11.
