I'm game, but I don't have very many interesting stories. I worked for several car company's including GE, North American Car and another as a carman. North American Car company I spent the most time at is now defunct. Many of these company's can be seen "]here. I do have a few stories but it will take me time to write them out. yes, I'm slow.

There's an old railroad line that started in Laramie Wyoming and went up into the mountains and I think ended around the Colorado boarder. It was used initially to haul out timbers to make ties. Then it turned into a tourist train and I rode it as a little kid with my mom and grandma. Unfortunately when the price of scrap metal went high, they tore it up for scrap. A **** shame.

There's old railroads all over southern Wyoming and northern Colorado. Mostly to haul ore and timber out of the mountains. Lots of history rr history around here, people come from all over to experience it.
