I was there when you filmed that, last car behind 12.I haven't riden the loop for a few years now, but it has always had a special place in the heart. I was recently at CRRM where the shays and the rest f the equpment are kept and I was lucky enough to get a cab-ride in either 12 or 14 (I forget which one) wich has always been a drream. I hope you can get out the CRRM and see them if you haven't; it is a trip down memory lane. Love the video!

@jack4trains & its a shame 12 & 14 arent up on the highbridge where they belong, I havent been up to the loop since they left

Nice video, Skip. Brings back pleasant memories. If I remember correctly, I was the Fireman on No. 40 that day. Couldn't tell for sure from the video. Thanks.

Rumor mill has it as the Loop might be steam-less in 2008 #9 @ #12 are torn apart in rebuild and wont be ready for opening day and no shay since 2005

2-6-0 9 needs a new boiler and air compressor if it can run again. the loop recently aquirred a mexican 2-8-0 (baldwin) and shay 9 will be leased for 7-10 years for 2-6-2 12 which will go to the midwest central railroad

@skybluedragonator No I didn't here about that. I usually get the CRRM's newsletters, but I haven't taken the time to read them recently

@jack4trains have you heard that the colorado railroad museum has restored previous georgetown loop locomotive # 40 to beautiful operating condition and are going to use it for this year's trick or treat train?

My father was working for Greek railwas, so I had the opportunity to travel all over Greece with lovely trains.

I have too many memories about this time and continue to love trains and I will,
