Time to Move On

I think it is best that I absent myself from this discussion list. I have been insulted, attacked, and perhaps have unintentionally done the same to others.
It seems that today in America it is difficult if not impossible to have a civil, dignified discussion.
I have always assumed that people who use these pages had an interest in the history of the various narrow gauge railroads, the D&RGW included. That assumption has been proven wrong.
I have communicated with and shared info, photos, etc. with some really wonderful people on this list and I will continue to communicate with these folks via email or PM. Many have been so helpful with my projects and I really appreciate that.
As there seems to be so many who have no interest in preserving the history of the D&RGW, there seems to be no point to posting history here. I shall attempt to find another venue for the materials.
