Re: Steam Loco for COMO

The Denver Post the other day mentioned there are 800,000,000 dead standing trees in Colorado, not sure who counted them, South Park has its fair share, no shortage of wood.

We also are sitting on a coal seam, however that is somewhat more difficult to access. I understand provision is being made so coal can be burned if anybody is interested in reopening the coal mines. I have a shovel you can borrow.

As far as work days are concerned, Bob Schoppe is taking names, no dates etc have been planned so far, if you are interested please let him know, I can pass on details as can the DSP&P HS or through the Como Depot Facebook page. Bob also mentioned this in the last copy of the Bogies and the Loop.

I think one priority will be to finish the track we have been laying with the materials to hand. We have had a mild winter so far, but there is a snow drift over that section and we have a few more months of winter to go.
