Would you happen to have exact dates for your slides? You have a rare shot (through the gangway) of Bill Paluska a former Rock Island hogger who worked for the 1981 season only. He laid off his job at the DOT test track in Pueblo for the summer. Bill worked the east end only. 4% grades didn't agree with him.

The engineer running 487 up at Cumbres is George Knauff. I can't tell who was firing. I'm trying to figure out what 487 was cut off from the train to get water at Cumbres.

1981 was my first year in Chama, I started firing in mid-August.
