Thanks for the responses to my original message. This man I accidentally ran into here is John Teem's son. He grew up in Alamosa and remembers such things as riding in the cab of a locomotive over Cumbres Pass with his dad when he was a young child. I do not know him well at all, but I would really like to hear some more of his stories. I believe he said that his dad passed away some years ago. One more Rio Grande old head gone. Perhaps he has some photos--who knows.
