Drama at Cresco. A afternoon's worth, or perhaps multiple afternoons worth, of drama continues to unfold after today's wood-burner double header has come to a halt just below the Cresco water tank. After stalling just short of the tank, the Eureka and Glenbrook were unable to get the train moving...as it would turn out later because the Eureka was failing to make steam after it's blower broke. After removing the Eureka from the point of the train, the Glenbrook made a valiant attempt at pulling the train up the hill, but finally stalled out less in than 100-feet. In an effort to keep the train moving, the railroad called on DRGW 315, wearing the reporting marks of 425 during the Victorian Iron Horse Roundup, and sent the lone engine charging out of Chama and up the hill to rescue the stranded train that had now baked into the siding. In this scene, the rescuers have arrived and exchange a wave between locomotives as No. 425 prepares heads east to get passed the switch before backing onto the point of the Glenbrook. This would ultimately not be the final assembly of the train, however, as after the daily passenger train passed by, No. 425 would leave the siding to take water and move to the rear of the train where it would then guide the historic consist and two wood burners back down to Chama.
