[quote user="CopCarSS"] <p>[quote user="blhanel"]There's actually a couple of chapters in the book where the detectives are working in Denver. [/quote]</p><p>Hmmm...given his history with Denver and trains, I would have thought he would have bypassed writing about us. He had no luck in locating the "lost locomotive of Kiowa Creek," because it had already been recoveredin the dead of night in an insurance scandal back in the late 19th century. [/quote]</p><p>Kussler did not find the Kiowa Creek locomotive because it had been recovered shortly after the wreck. However, I find completely unconvincing, his explanation that the reason the legend held that it had not been recovered was due to it being secretly recovered in the dead of the night as an insurance scam. That is just too mystery-thrillerish of an explanation for the context of the event. It strikes me as an explanation that is reaching too hard in order to justify the fact that Kussler and his fans were hoodwinked by the false legend. </p><p> </p>
