I could make a jab about my employer having a reputation for being late, but this takes the cake.
Last Year, during one of my layovers I made it up to Boulder City to see The Eureka, here's some photos from that trip. If you're anywhere near the area, I do suggest you check out the Eureka and the museum collection Randy Hees and company has amassed.
I'll let Dan explain who is next to him in the fireman's seat:
"That is indeed Bob Craddock. He has been a lifelong friend and was instrumental in helping restore Eureka. Although Bob is getting long of tooth...so to speak.... he used to be quite powerful in Nevada politics. He was for many years in the Nevada Legislature. In fact he was there so long that he was #2 in seniority. Bob was also deeply involved in helping create the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Carson City, along with acquiring the original collection which included the INYO.
