Thanks for the photos Jerry, MAN! I wish I could have been there with you guys. (I was only 1,000 miles away with lousy road conditions....) I see so many familiar faces in your photos, it would have been fun to hang out with everyone and chat about Ernie.
One of the Friends BOD members who was one of the very first commissioners of the 'new' railroad said the two guys most responsible in getting the states to buy what later became the CATS was Ernie Robart, and Terry Ross.
