As promised earlier in this thread, I created the interactive map. But, it looked lonely and out-of-place on my Rio Grande Explorations website, so I created a proper RR&G website to host it. Once I started the new website, it sort of snowballed into a major project. I even asked Mr. Sperry to design us a new logo and he did a DARN GOOD job! THANK YOU, RUSS!
So now, in addition to the map, there is the history of the railroad, bio's on the full roster (as it exist today), and a new RR&G/SFHM Forum. As if that wasn't enough, we're using the new website as a catalyst to begin formal Work Sessions. Some darn good things are starting to happen.
If you're in east Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, or Alabama and can't get up to Narrow Gauge Country as often as you'd like, please consider the RR&G to be a local alternative. Yes, there are no mountains and the rails are too far apart, but the flavor of the narrow gauge lives here. And, there is real potential for Long Leaf to someday become the Chama of the South! Or, perhaps, the Orbisonia of the West. Ely of the East?
Without further
rambling adieu: Here is the press release and the new website:
