Re: (NNG) Looking for info on SPRR/TSRR/FWWR/GVRR 2248

That video was great, I've always wanted to see footage of that run to Granbury, looked like that could be what those first two shots were from.

Before Grapevine took over the operation, I always thought it would be great if FWWR could move the base of operations for 2248 to Granbury and run between there and the stockyards. Granbury is a great little town, and the original depot is walking distance to the square. The run from Grapevine has much less going for it as far as scenery now a days, and with the Dart coming through someday I think it would have been prudent to get a little bit out of the metroplex rail traffic. Too bad, it could have been a really well established steam program by now if they hadn't pulled the plug. Was Bill Davis reluctant to get rid of it? I always imagined his financial advisors made him get rid of it because they didn't see the potential.
