Reassembly, fire-up next for Rio Grande “Mudhen” 463

I do not think Antonito is in California.

For the record Antonito is in Colorado, And a ride on the Cumbres & Toltec should be on everyone’s bucket list.

Uh, Mr. Trains Writer…Antonito, the east terminal of the C&TS, is still in Colorado.
Got it?

I’m looking forward to seeing 463 in service!

hello larry and others: somebody at kalpubco muat’ve typed CA rather than CO. hope it’s the biggest mistake they made that day. as for 463, i hope they use it on the antonito - osier run, as the 70# rail there is wearing out fast under the poundhg of the heavier 480’s. the 85# rail from osier to a mie and a half out of chama is in much better shape. -arturo from camp 6 and mexico
