So it looks like SRLG is only running one day a week. Last Friday, I saw they had a crew on both the Monte Vista and Antonito trains concurrently, and it appeared there was a 3rd crew ready to combine those trains and take it over the hill. How do they keep 6 employees on the payroll, one day a week?
Or is the line being operated by another railroad and the crews are transported in for the day from somewhere else?
BTW, in regards to the discussion of car storage, I noticed the Coors tank cars that had been hanging around for the last 15 years have disappeared. IN Antonito, the only stored cars left are some odd-looking flat cars.
