The first train in 24 days ran out of Durango tonight with 482 to Hermosa. The train was the "Blues" train with bands in the open cars. A generator for the lights was on a 6500 flat car behind the 482. The train had to back down to the Event Park wye. The train will run again tomorrow night.
Kyle Colley was the fireman. Kyle worked three days a week on the D&S and three days a week on the C&TS during the fire and washout. He was C&TS engine watchman, a fireman, and brakeman.
