D&S Double Header
| October 12, 2018 03:51PM |
The list is acting weird today, I tried four times to post these photos. First time it posted them twice and then none of them showed up. Hopefully will work this time.
The D&S went to their fall one train a day schedule today, but had almost 400 riders, so did it with a 14 car, double header with helper 486 and road engine 481. The cool weather made for some dramatic smoke.
Helper 486 waits at Hermosa for the train with 481 to take water.
Engineer Joe Daley cleans the cab window of 486 while waiting at Hermosa for the train
