Re: Did last ng stock trains separate Sheep from Goats?

Actually, the last stock train operated immediately after the Kolor Karavan, if I can recall correctly. The empty cars came over the Monday right after the Karavan. And then the stock was loaded Tuesday morning and as soon as the train was ready, including the flat cars loaded with Chama lumber, it headed up Cumbres with 2 engines. Prior to boarding the Karavan in Alamosa, we had noted the string of stock cars getting serviced--things like replacement supports for a few missing roof walks. Since I had the following 2 weeks free, I stayed to chase the stock extra as most everyone else headed home.
