Right, Greg -

Terry Ross wrote a 112-page softcover book on the early days of the C&TS that was published in 1971 by the Colorado & New Mexico Society for the Preservation of the Narrow Gauge.  Terry's book included a 12-page chapter by Ernie Robart detailing the operations in September & October of 1970.  With Terry's permission, I transcribed some of Ernie's material and included it in several posts that are scattered through a long thread beginning at [ngdiscussion.net], with a summary of the operations from mid-September through late October at [ngdiscussion.net].  I also added a link near the bottom of the latter post to Steve Forney's videos of the slide show presented by Ernie & Terry during the C&TS 40th Anniversary Celebrations in late August, 2010.
