Re: SP 18 runs to Rockwood

Boy!! Was that a trip down memory lane for me. Back in 1994 when I first took Eureka to the D&S I could not believe that we were actually running up into the Rocky Mountains with the old gal. And on top of it all we were filming "The West" for Ken Burn and Steve Ives for PBS. It was great to see the 18 being able to run the same rails as I had the honor to do over a 20 year period. We had many wonderful adventures, met a lot of great people and had the time of our lives. I am so glad the 18 gang is now able to do the same thing. Good going guys! Have a ball and be safe!
