Rob...
I may have forgotten some details, but I know for sure that Ben Greathouse scared the @#$%& out of me one time, coming out of Antonito with a light locomotive (probably 483)in 1971. I am certain he was running at over 30 mph, almost sure that he was at 35, and thought at the time it was over 40. The locomotive was running smoothly, even though some passengers weren't.
