There is a mystery as to how 487 got to Chama on June 17 to doublehead the Illini RR Club trip out of Chama with 484. The last thing I have with 487 is she went west on a freight to Durango on June 8. There were no freights called between June 8 and June 17. How it got to from Durango to Chama is a mystery. There might have been a one-way freight run from Durango to Chama with no connecting move from Alamosa, or they simply doublehaded the Illini trip east from Durango.

ATTN JBW!!!!! You have a shot of 487 headed east through Ignacio with a short freight train. What was the date of that??
