Next we pass a "Fake" Water Tank used for various movies.

The C&TS has been used in several movies, can you name them all?

As we approach Lobato Trestle (Second Highest bridge on the C&TS - 100 Feet above Wolf Creek) our lead engine (#484) has to cross alone as the bridge can't take the weightof both engines at the same time.

Lisa is sitting in the first passenger car while I have the video camera running in the back in the open gondola car. Here is a frame from the video as we start crossing the Lobato Trestle.
