There is an article today in the Denver Post concerning the Georgetown Loop and it's quest for a new operator. Interesting reading. The Post talked to a lot of people in putting it together. What I found encouraging was the quote:
The existing operator, whose contract expires this fall, will reapply, despite nearly a year of fruitless negotiations with the society.
Ashby was, is, and almost certainly will be the best bet for a long time coming. It's good to hear the GLR hasn't completely thrown in the towel.
