493 Working Hard
| September 15, 2020 01:58PM |
The D&S 493 train to Rockwood this morning was delayed by someone sleeping on the track near the 32nd Street Crossing (behind City Market). Train stopped in time and no one hurt. 493 was pulling 13 cars, the steam run cars and 3 of the diesel train cars. They were pushing her to get to Rockwood on time.
The church I attend, Animas Valley Baptist, meets in the hall of the River Bend Resort (right behind 493).
Some of the D&S guys have been waxing the 493 boiler jacket.
