Nice cut. I have a CD copy of the LP. Vinton Wright did some good recordings on the narrow gauge.

BTW, This is a recording of 493 and 495 (2 engines that will probably not run again in my lifetime) departing Antonito westbound for Chama. They have already done their usual routine of water and coal for both engines, cut the helper (495) back into the train, and departing westbound. Probably recorded from near where the C&TS depot is located now.
