Good to know about Tafoya. He worked quite a bit with Gibbs in 1967, then disappeared. I figured he was a shop hand who got drafted into firing when they got short handed during the summer. Oddly enough, it seems every time 497 went east out of Durango in 1967, Gibbs and Tafoya drew it. Knowing what a PITA it's throttle was early in it's D&S years, I bet Don had interesting things to say about being stuck on 497 that summer.
