Hi Todd, thanks so much. You actually shared those with me a while back and I'm hoping to use several of them for my book on C&S restorations. The publisher and I are done with the text and now are working on photos.  I'm thinking of using a color shot of C&S 71 actively steaming for a cover shot.

I have a photo from you of five shots of the Great Train Robbery (from photo negatives it seems). There is a shot of a Suburban in front of the track used to cart 71 off. Is that someone trying to stop the removal of the tender?  Do you have any other shots of the towns people standing in the way of the tender's removal?

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving,
Kurt
