Still no offcial reason as to why D&RGW 3654 went up in flames last Monday. On the plus side, none of teh other cars in Boulder have gone up in flames since then.
A replacement car for the CHS/ Georgetown Loop has been found, more information on it as soon as it gets to Boulder. The replacement car should be in service on the Loop by the end of July.
3654 will live on to some degree, its trucks and other parts will be used to turn Colorado & Southern boxcar #8027 back into a functional boxcar after 70 years as a shed and unburned parts of its sill will be uses to repair the frame of Denver, South Park & Pacific 608.
