Thanks to the narrow gauge, my wife and I have had N95 masks available for our every-three-weeks shopping trip to Montrose and other rare occasions. I bought a few in Chama for protection while mucking out the dusty cinder accumulation in 315's smokebox. They were sure more effective than the bargain brand. So getting involved with the narrow gauge can have unexpected benefits besides the many obvious ones.
