(...) Hi Steve, I just agree the positive feedback posted in this thread. These coaches look great and, more important than anything else, you seems having fun to build them.

(...) One thing I did to get them straight was to make the sticker the height of a whole brick (I was sticking them on whole bricks), I printed cut lines on the sticker sheets to make sure that the lettering was straight on the sticker. I know what (...) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

(...) that D&RGW was a late entrant into Amtrak, as it was run by them for a while and was a money maker for them. I'm not up on the history of it and whether they still run it or whether an excursion company does, or what. (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

(...) [Snip a lot] Thanks for sharing these pictures Steve! Your coaches are really beautiful. I love designs with more than just two (or three) colours. And as Larry mentioned: these stairs are really worth to be copied! Regards, Ben (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

FYI there is also a "ski train" running from Denver into the Rockies that is painted the D&RGW colors. Of course that falls into the excursion catagory, but must be a site to see! (URL) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

Thanks, Larry, and everyone else. I'm not sure what I saw - several matching passenger cars with an F-class locomotive in the same livery. Seems like I used to occasionaly see a UP or SP passenger train when I lived in Austin, too. Probably private (...) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

I'm going to reply to my own post, bad form I know but I seems to do it all the time! What I meant to get across with my last paragraph, but completely failed was that I feel that this is like a great TLC/TLG set, in the same way that the Santa Fe (...) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)
