The wheel press, in Durango.
The #3 Driver Set is back for the 488. I had previously erroneously reported this to be from the 487. The Durango shop was fast and professional, of course. The Chama shop cut a new axle. Russ and I hauled the 7500lb part back on my 6K trailer... The Friends company truck made short work of it.

Slimrail Fan is 6.5 time zones, Pacific to Atlantic.
