John and the rest - Since it appears that there is a great deal of uncertainty as to the state or even existence of a history of the early days of the C&TS might this 40th anniversary be a good time to make a dedicated effort to round up as many of the "Original Characters" as can be found and prevail on them to record their remembrances’ of days gone past? Hopefully there will be a lot of them gathered in one place, even if not at the same time. Seems that this same documentation ought to be done with others that might go as far back as the D&RGW days also. Andy
