Actually the tender was in the way. When we showed up in August to work on the cars on the RIP track, we had to get Marvin to pull them all apart, and he barely had enough room to do that. Sometimes if ties are to be loaded, he does it there, but it wasn't possible.
But it was fun to see the variety of narrow gauge equipment lined up there, A ex-BA&P hopper on NG trucks, an ex-EBT hopper, (both for ballast service) , the tender for #9, a old Rio Grande caboose, a drop bottom gon, and two P-boxes, which may be headed to Georgetown.
