Great Western 60 returns

kgdjpubsOGR Forum Member

This is the serious answer to the rather tongue-in-cheek question of “why would anyone intentionally go to New Jersey on vacation?” After an absence of about 12 years, Black River & Western 2-8-0 #60 is back in steam in Ringoes, NJ. This was the Lerro Productions charter on May 17, 2013 backdating the 60 to her eastern Colorado days while in service for the Great Western Railroad.

Enjoy,

Kevin

Thanks! It's great to see her back. I grew up near Ringoes and rode behind 60 many times. I now live in Longmont, Colorado where she came from along with #90. It's weird how things work out in your life.
