Roger Hogan Chama, NM Train Stuff Date: 06/13/19 18:54 Re: C&TSRR=OY On The Move Author: callum_out So I guess that answers the question of which side will feature the charter.

And one more thing, the assistant general manager, Stathi Pappas, is based there and has just about finished work on the restoration of #168. Edited 2 time(s).

Date: 06/14/19 07:27 Re: C&TSRR=OY On The Move Author: Cumbresfan One more point that I gleamed from discussion elsewhere is that for safety the rotary will always be ahead of the engine upgrade when in transit. The reason is that the rotary has one set of brakes and if a knuckle broke going uphill it might become a runaway with its weight if they didn't hold.

Roger Hogan Chama, NM Train Stuff Date: 06/14/19 10:04 Re: C&TSRR=OY On The Move Author: callum_out Nah, the East side does a much better job with the crowd control issues and as to the OY I don't believe it's
needed major work. We'll see, doubt they'll get to my #77 anyway. Out Date: 06/14/19 13:09 Re: C&TSRR=OY On The Move Author: tehachcond I just rode the regular train out of Chama a couple of weeks ago with my girlfriend, and I pointed the OY out to her, saying it's unlikely that she would ever plow snow again. It looks like I was delightfully wrong. Great video as always, Roger.
