Hey everybody,
Heading out to Colorado early tomorrow morning, should be in Durango by mid/late-afternoon. Then Antonito for the slideshow Friday night, and all day Saturday in Chama/Antonito. Then home to Chicagolandia by late Sunday.
Unfortunately, no riding this trip (last rode the C&TS in '72!), I'll miss the MOW charter as well, just lots of yard/rolling stock/loco research and documentation.
Have all my plans, routes and visits in place, but I have some questions regarding Chama. I understand I'll be able to roam the yard with only a few restrictions...
Is it possible to get into the old roundhouse/shop for interior photos?
What's the likelihood (considering the charter and normal schedule) to find a relatively intact K-36 available for photos? I will target 483 for photos as all those pesky appliances and jacketing are out of the way, but it'd be nice to shoot a working 36 as well...
And finally and most importantly, where am I going to eat lunch Saturday? Any recommendations or suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike McKenzie
