Re: D & S Railfest 2014

Hi everybody – it’s your friendly Galloping Goose Motorman here,

Check out the latest updated schedule on the Galloping Goose Historical Society’s website for the True West Railfest Galloping Goose No. 5 runs. The only thing not yet posted there are the ticket prices – to be set by the railroad, soon I hope. A couple of things of note – On Thursday we depart Durango at 7:30am and that will put us in the mix of northbound traffic from there to Rockwood. IF all goes well we should be in the siding at Pinkerton for Train #461 to pass. (That is always a great photo op for Goose passengers!) Then we follow 461 to Rockwood and be spotted on the wye when the double headed 463 rolls in. That day will also be unique because we get passed again by both trains (and the light helper) as they head south from Silverton at Elk Park. Goose passengers should also get to observe some of the special work train activity on Friday. Anyway, again, check out the schedule on our website –

And, by the way, the fall trip schedule on the C&TS is there also…
