I made a visit with a couple of old friends to the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic RR “After The Fall Rush". The fall colors, crowds of passengers and photographers had faded. We caught the daily train #216 (eastbound) ready to depart and departing Chama on a beautiful Tuesday of the last week of regular service. We stopped to catch oil fired K36 #489 coming out of the narrows before heading over to Sublett to capture the arrival and departure of train #215 (westbound) with coal fired engine K27 #463. Engineer Jeff Stebbens switched sides with Travis after topping off water, inspecting engine and a few words with conductor Chase Bond. Part 2 includes the swapping of engines at Osier and the departure of train #215 now with engine #489 (heading back) to Chama. We caught up with train #215 at Coxo crossing before heading home to Durango taking the old right-of-way.
Enjoy,
Bob

Very nice video - although when I see it it also makes me happy that I could ride behind 489 when she was still running on coal 😌

Great video, Bob. When I was there in September, I saw that same mother and child by the old freight house.

I got to visit C&T back in July and 489 was the engine I rode behind all the way to osier. It’s one of my highlights of this year along with my trip to the Grand Canyon via steam a few weeks ago.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I want to ride the Grand Canyon someday. I do have a GC departure video.
