Thanks for the picture of Bob--he was a fine fellow, an excellent model builder, and a true friend of the narrow gauge. He was also involved in aeronautics, played key roles in more than one of the Durango narrow gauge conventions,and remained quite active well into his 80s. I was always amazed at his level of activity, and even Bob was amazed that he was still going strong as long as he did. He was a good guy.
