Kevin M, thanks for filling in the blanks on the other Kevin's full name. The only correction I would add to your post is that he only had to put up with 59 different opinions, I was fine with whatever locations he picked. 
On one 20/455 runby, he announced after the first runby the regular train was a little late, so we had another runby, I was impressed how he could coordinate with the railroad. On the 20 Solo return trip to Antonito, he did say they were making it up as they went along, as no one had done a charter eastbound this early in the day. I am grateful he got so many runbys in on both trips.
