Hey, Gothpapa, maybe he and I were saying the same thing after all. My misread--thanks for the clarification.
I guess I am weary of the "Wouldn't it be great if..." messages which seem not to fathom the realities of tourist railroading, to wit: it is
very expensive--and there is never enough money. I don't know how many times I and others on this forum have made that point, and it never sinks in. I do not for one moment want to dampen anybody's enthusiasm. But enthusiasm needs to be tempered with realism. Maybe that realism only comes with age and experience.
Oh well...
Excelsior!!!
Mike
