Dave - thanks for posting those pictures, 859 was the first car I worked on as a team leader. The car had been parked with a heavy load of ballast when someone opened both sets of doors on one side, causing it to roll over.
I know who did id but won't tell as he still works for the C&T.
Apparently the RR liked the work we did on it cuz they used it for over a year before we got a chance to paint it.
Tony - that is the car that you and I drove to Antonito to inspect, when I received that assignment.
