Casey, you're right. I'm so tired today I got my consist wrong. 36 cars including the caboose. I corrected my post. That long string of freight cars ought to be an incredible source of pride for a whole bunch of folks at the Friends of the C&TS who worked on them and helped preserve them. And that long train made if from Antonito to Chama with only one hot box and one bad air hose, both of which were quickly repaired by the railroad.
