I have know way of knowing for sure, but to me it seemed like K36 #481 was pushing #7 out of Hermosa. I can say it took almost exactly the same time to get up the hill to Rockwood as it did the previous day with 478. So the diesel was probably doing its job.
Chase will have video in another day or two. It's not at the top of the list, but he's considering Fort Lewis. It would be tough to go to school there knowing there's a lot of history down the hill.

ps. Go to the Steamworks brewpub and buy a teeshirt with 484 on it!
