Hi, Grant -
At this point it is all VERY tentative - but our main objective is to offer three or four worthwhile days as an add-on to a trip to Durango for RailFest 2015, thus spreading out the cost of airfare over seven or eight days of trips instead of just four - hopefully a win-win for all concerned. Or - to misquote my friend Johnson Barr's second cousin - "You can please some of the people most of the time and please most of the people some of the time - and those are pretty good odds ... "
