Steam on the C&TS Last Year (2019)

I was looking around among last years pictures in search of a particular image of the tender now behind 483 in Chama, and found this instead:
Given the present lack of activity in Chama, I thought folks might like to see this, even though it was taken with my iPhone.
It was taken August 1 at the end of Friends Work Session E a few minutes before the departure of train 216 (on the main in the center of the photo). We stopped work on 483 to take in the yard activity. 315 has just coaled up and is idling in front of the carpenters shed. I have lost my notes but believe 315 and a K36 (in the background to beyond 216) are preparing for a special excursion. I am sure there are folks here who can fill in more details.
Enjoy.
