Re: Las Vegas RJ article on NSRM Boulder City expansion & bridge

Randy,

Thanks for the information on the new plans for the Museum. My son and I visited this past weekend. Unfortunately for us, the Santa Trains were all sold out (looks like you had a last minute capacity issue with some cars that were unavailable?). We did enjoy rides on the Eureka and Live Steamers. We also went down to the Dam and went through the visitor center, and hiked the Railroad Tunnel Trail.

l was disappointed with the Hoover Dam Visitor Center, as it did not focus heavily on the construction of the dam and the role the railroad played in moving raw material. To me, this is a fascinating story and I hope your new Visitor Center will cover much of that information. After all, it's really the essential element in the creation of the railroad in Boulder City.
