Well, since today is the last day of the 2019 season on the Cumbres and Toltec, I thought I would ask about off season plans.
What I do know is that 489, unusually, will spend the winter in Antonito, even if she is due for a 1472, and that 488 and 484 will likely power the work trains and be the engines on the OY charter. 463 is likely to be the first engine to lose her tender.

Any possibility on a loco swap since they never undertake 1472 inspections down in Antonito? And which engine will power the Christmas trains?
