San Luis and Rio Grande RR yards in Alamosa, CO, new building, built by a new Iowa Pacific Corp: Pullman Sleeping Car. 00:01:50 This building is for rehabbing cars. Cars are mostly passenger. Up to nine cars or other railway equipment can be worked on inside the building. Another change is moving #20 from static display to a dead line by the steam engine house. Her smoke box front is off. 00:00:00 Some of #20's superheater tubes have been cut. The cuts on the superheater tubes are shiny, no rust yet. 00:01:16 All drive rods and most of Walscearts valve gear is off. 18 departs to La Veta while I am filming. 00:01:20 Stephenson valve gears of #1744 remain sunlit because of no boiler on her chassis. Stephenson valve gear rarely sees sunshine.
