Railroaders' Nostalgia > SPMW5771Date: 09/09/24 19:18 SPMW5771 Author: SanJoaquinEngr Great photos of Myron. Do you have anymore photos of Myron or other characters around Gemco ? Would enjoy seeing them.
Thanks Jim Posted from Android Date: 09/09/24 23:29 Re: SPMW5771 Author: SPMW5771 I was privileged to receive Myron’s railroad items from his step-son which included photos, time books, railroad books, time tables, and even his throttle lever. I am going thru all his photos and am finding very interesting things like a time he worked on 4449 up the Lone Pine branch with a special to Laws to a special event with the narrow gauge locomotives. TO member cewherry has filled me in on some of the details. I will organize and post.
