If so, one of the swaps from Chama to Antonito took place on Labor Day Weekend -
. . . When two friends and I were camped at Osier for a couple of nights. The first day we were there #483 (with a numbered cab and unlettered tender) ran through eastbound and the second day she ran through westbound — see [
ngdiscussion.net] for pics.
Late the following year the C&TS ran Three Great Events – Full-Moon Dinner Trains to Osier – followed by their first Foto Freight on October 22.
For a few photos of the dinner trains see [
