Thanks for sharing.  At least you  got some photos of the train.  Back in the 50's mother took me on the train, photos of us waiting, but none of the train, inside or out.  Duh!!

Thanks again,

Richard

Fantastic group of photos. Great references for modeling businesses and other scenes around the railroad.

OH! When I first saw this I thought it was the Cheyenne Frontier Day's train.   Then I saw the picture of Michelle, and knew she was at the Museum Saturday, then I saw you stopped in Greeley.   Then I actually looked at who posted the message.   Were you in the Colorado Model Railroad Museum car?  I think it is so good they are using that extra trip now instead of just dead heading the equipment back to Cheyenne.   

Someday maybe we can talk them in to doing an excurison all the way back to Coucil Bluffs.
