Hahaha, John, over at Wasatch Railroad is having way to much fun out there chasing down steam. If you have FB, might enjoy his fun at our selves. He's no Crock hunter, but fun to watch enthusiasm. Art https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php? ... 4453605712 |

That link didn't work for me; this might be better: https://www.facebook.com/Wasatch.RR.Contractors Oh my, there are several things there, including a visit to the Nevada Northern, a flying saucer at Ely, a steam tractor--oh, what a hoot! |

Over the years Wasatch has posted over 20 videos on our YouTube Channel. For each of the videos that I have been in, I have always warmed up by doing a Croc Hunter sequence. We had never really intended to post them. However, as we were trying to figure out what to post on Facebook that could draw in a number of new viewers, we decided to post a few of these. The response has been incredible! There are some of our episodes that we simply can not share....they would be seen as "too political in nature." It is my hope that all of you know that I really admire(d) Steve Erwin (the Real Croc Hunter). He had an amazing passion for life and his hobby. In fact, much of my drive with my business stems from the way Steve Erwin handled his business and passion. The refuge he and his wife started lives on today and his children (I think they had two children) have carried on the traditions of their father. My videos are not to make fun....I do have, what I feel to be, the same passion that he had for his work, family and hobby. It is my hope that the videos will be seen as fun and nothing more than that. Kindly, JohnE. |

All the good stuff on Youtube is in private videos, or never uploaded! |

It goes without saying that all of the WRC videos come from areas where we worked on an active project that is either A.) still running or B.) will be running soon, or C.) is an outstanding FINISHED display or operating locomotive/equipment. I guess it rubs some people the wrong way that some of us actually succeed, finish, win and maintain friendships and relationships. It allows all of the rest of those who have not achieved the same to strive for something......anything.....crock or not! As is par for the course, the moderators will lock the thread. So be it.....! Thanks for sinking yet another ship, Matt. You seem to be very good at that! Cheers, JohnE. |

You've got a good sense of humour , John. As an Aussie, it's quite interesting to see a Yank impersonating an Aussie!!!! You're welcome to come to Canberra and do your thing with our Garratt, 6029. But I won't let you take a bite out of my Pullman sleeper! Cheers, Bob |
