Colorado Rail museum members preview K37 Friday night

Colorado Railroad Museum has restored K37 #491 and will introduce it to members this Friday!

Friday after hours

It’s a bit too far for me, tho :frowning:

Pics please!

When I saw this posting, I was wondering if you were going.

Ric,

Please take pics!

I’ll be in Maine eating Lobsta

Don,

Why don’t you edit your second post and write duplicate post in the space where you have listed the same thing as in this post. PS, not going to Colorado, too many druggies out there.

Interesting…unfortunately I already have plans.

I can’t go tonight, but I plan on being there tomorrow for the public unveiling if all goes to plan. I’ll post pics when I get a chance.

Later,

K

Thanks, K.

Kevin,

Just got in, will look for you tomorrow.

Wow, That’s fantastic. Thanks for the footage Kevin. Always good to see them coming out of retirement instead of going into it.

Very nice. Will 491 stay captive on the museum loop, or will she someday get to stretch her legs in either Durango or Chama?

Chances are good I will be able to visit Golden before too long since I now have family just outside Denver.

Jon,

Running under state boiler code so will stay put. will be doing Thomas and north pole express for the museum this year. my photos will have to wait as I realized last night I have no resizing software on my laptop.

Al, if you have room on your computer you could install Irfanview for some picture adjustments. Free! It is 14.7 MB (15,437,824 bytes) on my Windows 7 computer.

In the save menu it allows you to choose the quality in % which will save a lot of room online

In the Image menu you can choose to resize/resample to your chosen size.

If your computer OS is Apple I have no idea.

Here’s an example of one of your pics of your beautiful 45A shrunk, but still keeping the EXIF info.

Kevin,

Thanks for the movie.

Wish I had been there!
