C&Sng at CRRM, part 4
| December 09, 2021 08:15PM |
I posted part 4 of this series on the acquisition of C&S narrow gauge equipment at the Colorado Railroad Museum.
Part 4 follows Bob Richardson as he and Cornelius Hauck discover the existence of a Denver, South Park & Pacific locomotive that had made its way to the state of Wisconsin, and the curious twist that opened a door to get it back to Colorado. The opportune door, however, required lots of money, solving a logistical puzzle, and a trip to Mexico.
As always, if you know more or have corrections, I would love to know.
Enjoy,
Kurt
