I was batting across the windblown prairie of SE Colorado when, on weed grown track paralleling a little traveled road,(through Sugar City, Colo., that had a sugar silo made into a grain elevator, and a large photo sign of what looks like, maybe, a former sugar beet factory....I could not find any large building, but the silo), I came upon a fairly modern
diesel road switcher lettered for the "VSR".....Who VSR? Coupled to this parked in nowhere loco was a string,,maybe twenty, of odd empty flat cars...that looked like all metal bulkhead flats with center spines and, on a few, on the bulkhead, there looked like there were upholstered lounge chairs, two of them. These cars were lettered "VSR" also. (the train looked like it shipped something that maybe needed arm guards overseeing it??) It was sitting there dead, east of
Pueblo, but not a town for ten miles either direction. I am guessing nobody has a model of this? I think I shot some
photos, at least of the cars, but am not unpacked.
