Re: D&RGW 223

Hi Bill:
I was out of the state for much of the 80s and had to depend on the guys in Utah who are doing the work. I think the problem is that the folks who are working on her now were not involved then, so there is a bit of loss of history involved. Or they chose not to mention the Chama connection. In any case, I never heard about that. They seem to be doing a great (but slow) job of restoring 223. I know they want to do it right, it is just a matter of $$$ and people to do the work. I hope they can get her running even if she does stay in Utah. I think their viewpoint would be that Colorado is full of narrow gauge engines and this is their only one.
