The third Engineer/Fireman school of 2021 starts today. 487 is at the pit so the students will get 484.

For some reason the cams have been playing up for me this morning so might not catch all the activity.

487 has steam to spare here, a true characteristic of this particular locomotive.

Was wondering whether anyone else was seeing cam issues.................it started with me when #487 came to the pit.

If you look at my post, you will find that I was having cam issues as well. Yes, they have settled down now, though the North cam often freezes on me.

Currently, the cams are down once again. Likely no departure stills today.

Yes, cam's are still down at 2 PM EDT and since all three are affected, it's probably some kind of network problem.

I can't claim credit for being awesome. The railroad unplugged them to save bandwidth during a peak period (but didn't tell me) and forgot to plug them back in.

It took less time to fix than for me to type this. :smiley16:


Though, it did take about 10 minutes of troubleshooting and contacting the railroad to figure out the issue.

Y'all have a great weekend.
