People can say what they will about the D&S, but I think they are a class act and have gone "all-in" for the Polar Express.

I lived in Reno, NV until 2 years ago and I took my girls to the Polar Express on the V&T. It was a diesel engine and the decorations were not up to the level that I see on the D&S. They still had fun, but it wasn't steam. I'm sure the D&S could have run their diesels and not gone to the trouble they did.

Even lettering the tender I feel is going the extra mile for the kids. Hats off to the D&S for their efforts.
