Those big flag poles (which are now way too big) were originally used by yard crew as a hand hold while switching in the yard in the days of the cowcatcher pilots. The stantion lasted up till the end of the days of steam, the original purpose long gone.
TS really needs an official durango and Silverton route
Fantastic video!
These engines are amazing
The 3 Chimes on 476 and 482 sounded epic!!!!
powell on 482 from 489
I doubt it’s the same one. The one on 482 sounds very different from 489’s
What kind of whistle is 482 using in this video
@@tamezlocomotivestudios6493 Powell 3 Chime, and it sounds like Nevada Northern 40.
lunkenheimer 6" 3 chime on 476
I like this weather on d&sng 482 winter train in Durango Colorado!
Man I wish theses trains were running like last year. Sure hope tracks get fixed. Thanks 🙏

As 476 whistles for the crossing at Silverton Depot what is that flywheel in the foreground and what was it used for??
not sure looks to me like some kind of balancer of some sort
I hope 481 and 486 run again soon.
Pinchie08 both are running now. 486 starting running late May or so. 481 starting around the 4th of July.
486 is now in the museum awaiting repairs
Is that a powell 3 chime I hear on 482 O_O. Except its more of a Powell 2 chime, cause it doesnt sound like its playing the third note
Great video! What is the location of the clip at 29:27?
Listen to that echo at 54:43
So 482 and 476 are running in this video and I know where 473,486,480 and 481 are they’re put away
