I'm not sure what you mean when you refer to, "your buddy."
I try to keep up with things concerning the YW simply because it is such a rich part of the history of this area ... and the fact that I used to work there, as a volunteer and then as a full time employee for about 20 years. I'd like to see it come back and succeed.
Of course the community has an interest in what happens to the Blue Goose, and the railroad in general. We wouold like to see Court Hammond sell it. However, the property and buildings are in such a convoluted legal and financial state no prospective buyer will touch it. And even if someone would try and buy the railroad, Court reportedly will not sell unless they 'partner' with him.
