Man, that sure was some serious work! Seems like the FRA man found something potentially very dangerous if not attended to promptly. A wreck of a tourist passenger train off that mountain grade would surely have been DISASTEROUS, and would likely shut down the RR permanently. Old Time Trains oldtimetrains@rrmail.com |

I would prefer, and I think the CTSRR would prefer, that we not get into speculation about it. NO it was NOT 'very dangerous if not attended to promptly'. But it DID need fixing. So it was fixed for once and for all. http://www.cumbres-toltec.info/cgi-bin/forum/webbbs_config.cgi drgw483@la-tierra.com |

C&TS has every reason to be proud of how they coped with this situation. Kevinmccabe@avenew.com |
