Russ,
I did not read Bob's story, but I have no doubt that your recollection of the first Chama train is correct. As I remember, Bob Keller and Scenic did not appear on the scene till the Spring of 1971-- they were not present during the fall of 1970. Thus, any account by Bob Keller of the first C&TS Chama train was, at best, a retelling of stories he had been told. I suspect these "retellings" became a little more embellished with the passage of time.
