I can blame 90 for a a life wasted railfanning, as we grew up about 10 miles from there. In 1967 when it arrived, I would have been 12 years old. So much bigger than #31 and #4! An article in Model Railroader, "The diligent Decapod", gave the details of #90's background and the information about a far away place, Loveland, Colorado. Move the calendar forward 20 years and I live and work in Loveland.

We need to find some beet gons and send them to Strasburg. While the farms are much different, I am confident with a bit of work and Photoshop, the enterprising trip hosts could make Lancaster County look like Larimer County.
