Yes Dave I knew that was a smaller crowd due to the nature of the trip from California, etc. I would suspect a higher number of movie cameras on that trip
as it was more "hard-core" participants. As you know we have a fair amount of footage of this trip on the NG, and some has not been used just yet. I was wondering roughly how many folks rode the excursions from Alamosa to Durango then to Farmington, or Silverton. Those were usually decent 8-12 coach trains. The 67 on the trip you mentioned was surely a unique and historic trip with the D&RGW and RGS. We will be sharing the Alamosa-Silverton portion hopefully in 2017.
