Stephen,
Glad I got to see you and meet your wife even if only briefly. Thanks for posting the pictures. Call me when you get a chance.
In the bottom picture the loco in the background is #7 the 3 truck Westside shay we just finished rebuilding. Behind the #40 you can see the backhead of the #1 the 2 truck shay which we are rebuilding now.
All you NGDF guys are welcome to come and look around. We aren't as long as the C&TS, the D&S, or the WP&YR but were just as wide and more than twice as steep. In addition our curves are 3 times as sharp. Introduce yourselves because I would love to be able to put faces with the names.
John Bush
