For the 40th - Fri through Mon

Take a couple of the old rider box cars and couple them to the back of an engine in Chama. Spend two hours doing yard work (water the engine, make up a train, turn the cars on the wye, pull out of town etc.) and charge $50 a head to ride in the box cars.

I'd pay that in a flash.

Great idea?
Good idea?
Fair idea?
I should go back to my old job and forget even model trains?
