Hi, All -
The following Bob Richardson photo of a Bobber and a Bumblebee appears on page
22 of Richard F. Lind's long out-of-print 1963 photo album 'Narrow Gauge Country'.
It shows the D&RGW Christmas Train in Salida on December 22, 1950:
Was this train unique to Salida, or did it start in Durango and visit Chama, Antonito, Alamosa, Gunnison and Montrose as well?
