This is my last posting for 1933. There were no other rotary runs over Cumbres or on the Santa Fe Branch the rest of the winter.

I would like to thank Jimmy Blouch, whose research made these posting considerably more interesting than they would have been.

Perhaps we will do this again sometime, for a different year, of course.
