Things I never thought I would see without a Time Machine

Acouple of shots from the Colorado Railroad Museum today;
Rio Grande Southern Motor #4 running under its own power and full of passengers. Congratulations Ridgway RR Museum on an excellent operational restoration.
Not to take away from the Geese, but perhaps the most inpressive site is a Colorado & Northwestern locomotive coupled to a Colorado and Northwestern boxcar, a sight not seen in nearly a century and even more amazing given that this is the only C&N locomotive and the only C&N boxcar known to exist on the face of the earth.
