Re: 50 Years Later

Greg, you repeated what I said...to each his own. I do not have to like every steam locomotive in the world. I moved to Durango because D&RGW locomotives run near my home almost every day. It they had not been here and some other railroad like the Grand Canyon ran here, I would have stayed where I was living. I have loved D&RGW narrow gauge since I was 14 years old (1954) and do not feel an obligation to apologize for that. Once heard someone say that narrow gauge were toy trains. Fail to understand how 85 and 90 car coal trains (Crested Butte branch) can be a toy. There are steam locomotives that I would go a long way to see and others that I would not walk across the street to see. Glad you have folks who will purchase what you make, I have a lot of them, but all but 2 or 3 are D&RGW.
