Stop talking, start acting !!!!!
With the energy used on this and other boards for
talking and verbally insulting a.s.o someone could fire the C&T engines for 3 years.
The goal we all have is go get the RR running aganin a s a p.
Why not set up a foundation for the RR together with to the owners (Colorado & New Mexico) and donate the money to them ?????
From the foundation budget projects like track or locomotive repair could be payed. This governmet backed orgyanisation would have more "reputaipon" in other parts of the world - Europe for ex -.
I knew a lot of guys over here which like to donate, but only to a clearly organized insitution and are afraid to spend to a black hole of any "coleur"
Friends of mine and I have $ 4000 reserved for that, but we will not donate untill the way the money takes down to the project is clear to us.
This would end the neverending negotaitions who has to be funded, the commission or the friends.
My 2 cents
