Nice shot Larry. Anyone notice 315 sitting outside the Chama Enginehouse? I was watching them clean the fire on 489 last night and kept hearing a whistle in the distance. After a while here came 315 with her freight train from the weekend. I thought they were going to keep her in Antonito until the next runs in August. Roger Hogan has a great video of 315 and her train leaving Antonito yesterday which was on You Tube this morning.

Thanks Bill,
My understanding is this week, the 315 will be drained and put to rest until the next excursion, currently scheduled in Aug.
If anyone can add more please do so. Roger's video is excellent!! Our "Drone Ranger" fills in a lot of blanks the web cameras miss! His coverage is GREATLY appreciated!! Larry

I heard from a friend that was on the Sunday FCTS charter that 315 would be back in Chama yesterday.
No idea where 463 is.

It is really obvious how small that C-18 315 is to a K36 when you see it next to 484.

No other use of 315 is planned as far as I am aware, but she is hot and smoking like crazy.

Arrival of train 215: 487 and 7 cars
This gentleman is back again this year waving at the cams as the open gon passes. He always seems to do an Osier flip back.

Plans are to drain 315 soon and hold in storage on the RR until August.
