Hi !
It would be very interesting to see, and ride, a "complete" C&S ng. train.
Two of my friends and I are going to visit the Loop in September 2007
I have been there once before in 2002, when I was working with wind turbines in the USA and was lucky enough to have a train-weekend off in Rocky Mountains in Colorado. (Paid by the company)
At that time #9 was still standig beside the line outside Silver Plume. Looking miserabel.
I only saw a gleam of her from the train.
(It's my boss in the foreground with the sunglasses. He was bored, but I felt I was in heaven)
I'm happy to see it steamed up again, and naturally I have a model of #9 for my garden railroad.
