Explorations of Historic Railroads in Colorado, New Mexico, Louisiana, and Texas. I consider myself a rookie railfan and a rookie railroad historian. I'm certainly NOT a professional photographer or videographer. This website is mostly intended for my use and that of my friends and family. It is open to the public as a way to keep in touch and share info with fellow railfans. RioGrandeDude @ SmittysHouse.net. My Favorite Railroad Websites. The Friends of the C&T Forum.

Since our Sunday is day off, we assemble with the local saints for worship, then drive off to the former logging town of Greyeagle for lunch and time on the Internet. Sunday's drive was unique. The local took the hole (or siding) once he cro...
