"Fall Madness" is turning into just Madness

September 20, 2007 07:29PM
Wow you would think one of us 'creeps' on here would have answered this. Let me try and answer it for us. Jay was counting on the 489 being completed in time, hence four engines would be available. Now there are only three. One is in Antonito for the train from there and two are in Chama. So he is running his double header Saturday evening after the Antonito train gets in. It will almost be dark. Then Sunday, it's fall foliage time so I assume the regular trains are routinely double headed to Cumbres. Where does he get the locomotive for his train on sunday? Does he hitch a ride behind the regular passenger? Does he wait until it leaves and the helper gets back? It's a puzzle isn't it. But wait, he promised all those run bys and all on the way to Osier. Does the Chama helper take him all the way to Antonito? Does it come back to Chama to help the Monday train? Does the Monday train have to go it alone to Cumbres. Is he stuck in Antonito with no engine on Monday? Does his train hitch a ride behind the regular passenger from Antonito on Monday? Come on fellow 'creeps' this is really getting good. These people are paying $800 for this mess.....and they are going to freeze their a.. off in those open cars and get soaking wet when it rains and no one knows if they get their run bys or their own engine or what. Personally I am going to be in a nice warm suv watching this thing unfold and I have my motel reservations for the evening already made.
