One of the K-36s blows of some steam in the early morning air today. Portends a steamy day on the last Saturday in August.
Another season is slipping by.

484 clears out of the way by using the little used route to the ashpit. Meanwhile patrons begin arriving at the depot platform.

487 and 463 in one day. Sounds like a pretty good Saturday to me.
