Train Mountain Tour Part 4: Let's ride a ballast train up the hill. See description to follow map

We received a call from a track crew who needed ballast (rock) so we assembled a train. We used a gas-hydraulic locomotive (one Honda power unit powers the hydraulics under two locomotive frames), three ballast cars, and a rider car for the conductor (me).
