C&S #9 One Short Season by Midyette
| August 10, 2015 08:29AM |
Colorado & Southern #9's tenure at the Georgetown Loop was a short one. I was fortunate to get to see her when she was operating there, & always wondered what events lead to her restoration, operation , & departure to display at Breckenridge. After reading Jason Midyette's ONE SHORT SEASON, I know. It's short, but well illustrated & an excellent read. I especially enjoyed his chapter on its operation. I ordered my copy from Jay at The Chama Steam Store - [www.chamasteam.com]
