The track crew was using 19 to haul ballast out of Antonito all last week (except Thursday, I'm assuming attention was on other pressing issues). They had been shoving 2 of the EBT hoppers heaped full of nice looking granite ballast up towards Lava. I got to believe they made 15-20 trips on a typical day.

It don't look great, but it is now one of the 1st "Gen Set" locomotives in this part of the country.
