Well I sure have enjoyed looking at Mr. Coker's narrow gauge artwork and now I hope he writes a autobiography on his life and times on the Cumbres and Toltec and the Durango and Silverton.Not that many people have had this opportunity since the days of the Rio Grande narrow gauge.This autobiography could give the rest of us some kind of idea of what it's like operating so many locos and keeping the spirit of the Rio Grande alive.It could also contain Cokers artwork that he has finished. Hope John reads this and please comment if you would like to see him do this soon! DAVE
