It just seemed to be the worst of the "How can they dump it back in the park?" posts, many of which have been anything but respectful. Durango has been and continues to be supportive. IMHO they should not be maligned regarding the restoration of their locomotive or its future storage - something which remains in the future and is yet to be seen.
