It was a small local on a spur track in north Denver.
Don't need a sale, just gas money to go back to PA. Arrive when my old man is at work and take any Winchester or Colt SA I want. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :P

Deliberate sabotage is the final verdict. Apparently someone put a stump on the tracks, it was called into 911 and dispatch had an officer pushed the stump off the tracks and down an embankment. Two hours later the train came by and the stump was back on the tracks and derailed the train. This track is just now getting back in service as the derailment moved many of the rails out of line and about a block of track needed to be rebuilt.
