844 just east of Granite Canyon this morning, on the number 1 track. No diesel helper. The second one playing with a little black and white. The third is at Buford.

Why is the rotary support car on the end of the train?

So the crew can eat & sleep in that thing, instead of going back and forth to motels?

What did they do when Steve Lee ran the program. I don't recall that car (looks very out of place) bringing up the rear then.

Steve would book hotel rooms for the crew. We tried staying on board one time when the local hotels were booked and the banging on the side of the cars with questions got to be too irritating.
