D&S Busy, Double Header
| September 14, 2019 04:31PM |
The Durango & Silverton had been very busy this week running several second sections to the second train (463). Today the 463 train was a double header with 14 cars and 395 passengers. A tour group from the UK rode yesterday and today chased the double header in van.
