Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec - Texas Regional Meeting

May 11, 2013

The Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad held their 2013 Texas Regional Meeting in the Rusk, Texas depot. It was great to see so many familiar faces: Tim Tennant, Marshall Smith, Mary Jane Smith, Bob Ross, and Clyde Putnam. Michele and I rode up to Rusk with Barry and Blake Bogs.

 

Tim and Bob gave us a briefing on the current state of affairs and some plans for the future. After a short Q&A segment, we boarded the Photographers Special that was running that day for a short trip to Maydelle, Texas.  It was a nice, relaxing day.
