Jerry,

Thanks a lot for that history of the operation. A fine re-play of the old L&RP magazine.

I have long been interested in the Edaville railroad and am glad that Mexican engine found a good home there.

and glad to hear that the St Paul chapel car found a better home. Going back to one of the last issues of L&RP there was a article about those cars. She seems to be the last of her breed.

Always wondered why they chose that odd 30" gauge;now it is explained by those two Anaconda
tank engines. TM

I heard they used to have bunch (maybe 3) of former Soo Line Barney & Smith coaches. Are they still there? It would be nice to get them back to Soo country if they are not needed a Virginia City.
