American NG mecca

Indeed, the rolling stock collection, the locomotive roster (alive AND dead), the infrastructure, the scenery, the local region and last, but actually foremost, the people of the C&TS are what bring me back time after time to volunteer to help keep it from disintegrating into a pile of rust and rotted wood. There are few places left like this. While I want to take NOTHING away from other operations this place has a gravity all its own that is hard to put into words.
Too see it is to know it, to know it is to feel it, to feel it is awesome.
Can't wait to get back again next year.
