Glenn,
Thanks for the comments. Yes, the Cuba tape you mentioned was produced by us, but not the India tape.
With regards to narrow gauge in Mexico, I remember shooting a narrow gauge train departing Merida Station and may have a B&W around someplace. I was 12 at the time!!!!
I also seem to recall that some of the Yukatan narrow gauge went to Disneyworld in Florida, but I haven't been there to see them.
Regards.
Greg Scholl
PS...Heard a report on Cuba the other day, whereby for $1.00 the crews at one of the narrow guage lines will give you great smoke all day, and cab rides. This is $1.00 per member of your group. Who says a dollar doesn't go far anymore!
I figure if we ever get normalized relations with Cuba you can kiss goodbye Cuban steam, and many Americans will kill it off either by snatching up the steamers that are down there, or by making more diesels/trucks available. Americans have a way of killing off steam in most of the underdeveloped countries. GE and GM diesel salesmen are never far away! But I guess its better than the Russians or someone else selling to them.
