The Commission has traded for this coach and I would like to know what they intend to do with it?

Thank you for the question. This is a Commission transaction that took place with the Colorado Railroad Museum. The premise behind the trade for coach 256 entails a vision to eventually restore historic equipment and assemble a representative D&RGW “San Juan” passenger train consist that could be operated for special charters over the Cumbres & Toltec. This plan is in its infant stages but that would be the desired objective.
