Kevin:
Wouldn't the Eastbound San Juan be a pretty short ride out of Durango? I guess you could just go around the loop like our models do. LOL
Seriously I understand the availability of equipment and the potential to do this on the D&S vs. the C&TS which has the correct partial track route in place.
Now if these guys could just share their trains with each other then it would be all good. Build a RR car transporter (flat bed) and then ferry the passenger set between Chama and Durango for special or extended runs. If only it was as easy as operation night on the model RR layout...
