The 216 heads east on a beautiful day, and shortly afterwards, a new ramp is built for the RPO.

Wondering where 489 and the students are.

489 and the school train left just after 8am this morning. If I remember the schedule correctly they go to Osier today, come back around the time 215 returns. Tomorrow they will go all the way through to Antonito, then return the next day. I may be wrong on all that so don't hold me to it!!

The 215 arrives on what looks like a nice evening. I'm always happy to see it arrive a little late. I'm sure those people wish the trip could have gone even longer.

As Larry predicted, the Engineer/Fireman school train arrived shortly after the 215. Since the 215 is at the wye, the school train moved off the mainline when she arrived.

07-20-15 About 20 minutes after 215 the school train returned for the final time today.

Tomorrow morning should bring another very early departure for the students, as I think they go all the way through to Antonito tomorrow.
