I would be very interested about the Bigfoot near the turntable! We are trying to restore it and knowing theres a Bigfoot nearby may or may not help. Certainly it could help with the lifting of heavy items or we could use Mr. Bigfoot as a security guard.
Knowing there is no documentation or photos of such sighting I would have to cordially say NO WAY did it ever happen.
) As in most of the posts made concerning the Depot, no documentation no proof. FYI, the latest is now this person is trying to prove the machine shop at the roundhouse was moved! Next it'll be the roundhouse itself. Although.......there are holes in the walls and repairs made. Maybe it was moved from Italy?
I have tried and tried to ignore the diatribe of this person who has an over the top obsession with Como yet he clearly stated he's never been there. Sorry, I know the Depot well and I will never believe any of his "theories" and as many others state, no proof it is only theories which everyone is entitled too. But when others including the DSP&P Historians who have written books and live in and around Como and Colorado who have the most in depth knowledge of the Depot and Como and the NG they get blasted out of the water because none of us agree with him. I was recently ripped apart by him myself. He said he knew me which he doesn't. I've never spoken to him nor had any contact with him except to maybe a post here or there to which he replied.
So you take your own posts in your hands when you dare to post anything that goes against his so called obsessive statements concerning the Depot and now the roundhouse buildings. Good luck. FYI, the more anyone responds the more he continues to rip people apart and comes up with more "theories" I'm sure he thinks is the only way it can be.
