Re: 463, 464

Y'all take it easy on Michael. He is new to the NG board, and he's just a kid...like we all wish we were again.

Michael, you have discovered the fun of the narrow gauge. You are asking all the questions and presenting all the "wishful thinking" that has crossed all our minds. That's cool.
There are (I won't say "no") very few dumb questions. There are lots of dumb answers...
From time to time, you'll find some folks who just can't seem to tolerate a little bit of day dreaming. Ignore them.

463-464 doubleheading out of Chama...sure, we would all love to see that. As explained above, it costs a whole lotta money to restore these engines, and when that happens, its not to give the engine to someone else to use. Maybe you will see it happen in your lifetime. For the present, we will have to settle for Train Simulator or a model layout.

I would like to see a K-27 on the D&S, and a K-28 on the C&T. Will either ever happen? Not likely...unless I hit the big Powerball.

How about getting 268 & 278 running out of Gunnison? or a repro C-21 for that matter. Its all fun to think about.

We can all be glad that we do have so much to really choose from, to go see and ride behind and enjoy on these 2 great RR's.

And with the 315 coming back to life, it will be even more fun!
