(A quick search of the Colorado Secretary of State business entity website shows that the principals of this "new" Central City Railroad & Mining Museum" are the same as those of a 1993 venture called the "Blackhawk/Central City Railway & Mining Museum" as well as the same as the failed 1987-1990 version of the Colorado Central tourist railroad that operated No. 71)

There is an oft repeated quote about the definition of insanity (attributed to Albert Einstein) that sure seems appropriate here...….

Just to clarify, this new effort in Central City is in NO WAY related to or a project of the South Park Rail Society nor the Denver South Park & Pacific Historical Society nor any other entity or person involved with the Como Project.

What is happening here is another attempt to "operate" 71 by the folks who tried in 1987.

We all should know how well that went, and for those that don’t -- the hub liners are worn off the rear most set of drivers and the lateral motion has allowed the flanges to wear into the outer side sheets of the firebox.
