CMRR 1 The DuckCMRR 1, a former US Air Force Davenport switcher pushes (drifts actually) the tourist Train back to the Mt Pleasant Station, the U&D wasn't called the Up and Down for nothing...years ago the locomotive drifted unmanned into Mt Pleasant after someone broke into the cab and released the handbrake and wheel chocks...destroying 2 track cars and pushing a caboose 50ft before stopping. Ask the NYC boys about the boxcar they lost that rolled almost 10 miles before stopping. All standing equipment is now skated.
