Today my wife and I stopped by the Colorado Railroad Museum. I read they were running RGS Goose #7 so we went for a ride. We were able to sit in the front which was a real treat. As we rode along I say my friend Dave who is a volunteer there. He often helps lay track in Como. He was working on track today. I went and talked to him later and he gave me a real treat by taking me in the roundhouse! It was nice to see the 20 and 491 up close. We also got to go in the Rico which was being painted. That also was a real treat. Below are pictures from today. Enjoy!
