Ahhh, my spooky ghost car! On my first trip to Chama land in 2011 my mate and I chased a regular train, and at every photo stop we made, this camoe'd Toyota was either already there or there when we got back to our car! And then we saw it back in Chama by the shops, Roger probably doesn't remember the aussie that commented on the days encounters!
Little did I know I would return, but didn't catch up with Roger on my second trip (but we did meet the lovely Barbara at the shops), so he has been held in Phantom like awe ever since.
I'll try again next year!
