Oh boy! A Mike! Very nice. Going to take a ride on the prototype again this summer. Perhaps I'll be driving on it virtually again by then as well!

Re: On the Train to Yesterday...
only just discovered this thread/project and it looks amazing. Not something in my general area of interest normally but I'll be very tempted to dip into my pockets for this!

Re: On the Train to Yesterday...
Just wanted to add my $0.02 too - what an amazing looking route, very much looking forward to seeing this one.

Re: On the Train to Yesterday...
Hopefully release not too far away. In addition to being a superb route in its own right, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on "main line" narrow gauge resources. In addition to my ambition to build some of the former Balkan narrow gauge, venerable routes such as Puffing Billy in Australia are pretty much impossible at the moment (in RW) as you need a loco capable of handling 1 in 30 gradients.

Hope to see this one soon 
Re: On the Train to Yesterday...
This one passed me by also, so I'm very grateful for the thread-necro
Great choice; an iconic and genuinely classic route and opens up many opportunities. I've not yet had the pleasure of visiting the real thing although we've been awful close on a couple of occasions (Moab, UT
)
I'll be hanging on to some of my RW cash for this

We've been in contact with American Heritage Railways, parent company of Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge RR, and we'll recieve permission to use all logos of the real thing.
Great, isn't it?
