Just wondering if anyone here knows anything about Frank 'The Waver' Smith? Every time I watch the train depart I think of Frank, who for several years would ride the train every day for maybe a month and wave to the Tipple camera from various locations on the train. He would post here if anything unusual happened on the run, which several times it did.

Frank if you are out there, and I hope that you are, here's a wave back at ya!

To Bill
I talked to Frank the day after your post.
I guess the reply you got from Jack is Frank's reply.
Frank & I visited for quite a while on the phone.
He said his health is good and he plans to visit Chama next summer.
Maybe in July.
I hope Frank makes it! I'll be looking for him.
