[quote user="gmpullman"]August of '56 here, Brent. Old enough to know better[/quote] Same here - older, yes, but wiser? Questionable! I am struck with insomnia again. It´s just past 1.30am here and no matter how hard I try and how many sheep I count, I don´t find my way to dreamland. That sucks! If you like to watch narrow gauge action in Colorado, here is a video showing some amazing footage on fthe D&RGW in the 1950s! <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0MMtZU0adyw" width="425" height="350"></iframe> There are 6 parts in total, all of them worthwhile watching! My own little slice of Colorado NG railroading is rather humble! <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/F0aKuKyRh6E" width="425" height="350"></iframe>  Henry - why should I be offended? I wasn´t around then, my dad was much too young and my granddad much too old to be involved in anything but surviving this ordeal. What  I have noticed, though, is that Hollywood took a lot of liberty from what must have been reality in those days. the Germans were far from being the brutal, stupid creatures often depicted in these movies.
