I am very pleased to hear about the C&S Society and I am looking forward to more information.

As far as the ride, the 1009 has coil springs above the journal boxes which were most likely used in its restoration because the larger than original (8"x 8" brake cylinder and reservoir) used left no room for the spring hanger assembly. It would be interesting to compare the ride in 1006, 1009 and D&RG 4 wheel caboose 49 which has leaf springs and the original equalizer beam.
