I am just amazed at the amount of care and skill going into the rebuilding of the #470.

It may well be the most extensive rebuild of any narrow gauge passenger car in Colorado.

Just doing those Pullman trucks would be enough for most preservation groups!

Great work folks!

Ted Miles, C&TS passenger.
