I remember one day several years ago when one of the GE's were on the Alamosa to Antonito train which was the C&TS connection. That unit had been reported as being defective and whoever was in charge of fixing them said it was not. Well after about 10 miles the unit started failing again and would not run over 5 mph and it made C&TS passengers over 30 minutes late to Antonito. C&TS knew of the problem and offered to send a bus to get the passengers but SL&RG refused the help. C&TS held the train for the passengers.
