D&S Fire Mitigation Train 5-8-2020
| May 08, 2020 08:18PM |
The D&S ran the train a bit differently last couple of days. The cutting is in a location where the lumber company's loader can move as it loads the cars eliminating the need for the engine to move the train The crew left the flat cars yesterday at Bitterroot and the 493 came down light. This morning she went back north and brought the loaded train down tonight. The 493 continued on into Durango for servicing over the weekend.
