Was in Lakeview about a week ago.

NCO depot was still standing, has been a private residence for many years.

LRY schedule - there isn't one. Trains run according to customer demand and many other factors. For example - recently the train out of Alturas was held one day to allow some mechanical work on the SD45s. Next day train was supposed to get to Perez, but digging switches out (decent new snow), doubling hill and unexpected engine problems resulted in train tying up at Ambrose. Presumably they made it to Perez the next day, and eventually started back assuming UP made the interchange.

The roster is in flux at the moment - it may settle down to one SD45-2 and two GP49s. SD45 isn't allowed on branch. Don't know if one 49 will work the branch and switch Lakeview, and rest of power will make turns Alturas to Perez. The operating pattern is changing as the available power and traffic changes. Typically daylight jobs, but has worked weekends and nights at times.
