Tennessee Central Monterey Excursion
Author: PatternOfFailure

In years past TCRY has liked to use their restored L&N GP7 #405 as west unit in power consist for passenger trains, but I've heard that it's often beset with issues.

Might one of you wise gentleman know whether or now 405 will be on this Saturday's trip to Monterey?

As a TCRM member, I can say that we normally don't take 405 east of Watertown because of how light footed she is on Silver Point Hill, which is 3% at its steepest. We're working to solve some mechanical issues now, but it all comes down to how many people we can get to do the job.
