Hi everybody, I just wanted to say Hello and no I didn't fall off the planet, I just a few vacations and got a new Job. I am thrilled to say I am one of the newest Engineers on The RailRunner Commuter railroad in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Although I miss the narrow gauge and steam over La Veta, running Railrunner trains as been a big challenge and joy for me and I love the thrill of sitting in station in Albuquerque on a Railrunner locomotive and hearing my buddy Gerald copy warrants on the same radio channel on his Amtrak Locomotive..
I apologize for not keeping up on the discussions here, but have been a bit busy.. I now have a home in Albuquerque and tomorrow I will run a Railrunner Train from Albuquerque to Belen to Santa Fe and back.. I miss everybody and those narrow gauge locomotives and good ole' 18 in alamosa. Take care everybody and best wishes.. I just wanted to say hi to all of my friends!!!
