Taken from the thread [ngdiscussion.net]

I was wondering after the Uintah Railroad closed its doors and sold its equipment, did any of the shop personnel make their way to the DRGW, Sumpter RR or any other narrow gauge operation.

Sounds like these guys would fit right in with the narrow gauge operations on the Denver and Rio Grande Western RR.

Still a Student,
