Progress continues on rework of the 2472 thanks to a handful of dedicated volunteers. No thanks to the "management" of what remains of the Golden Gate Railroad Museum. Due to no small number of bad decisions and arrogant behavior, the collection has been scattered. Some amount of it resides at Niles Canyon at the pleasure of the Pacific Locomotive Association. The PLA has once again proven to be a class act. As for 2472 working on the old commute line again, I wouldn't bet on it. Don't look for it to run anywhere on UP property, so that pretty much secures her future in this area as static display. That is too bad indeed.
The old GGRM website hasn't been updated in a long time, rather what little information there is comes out via a members only discussion board. Yep, no point in trying to get the word out to the public. In the past some complained about the "GGRM Secret Railroad Society". It would seem that it has only gotten far worse, Of course there's precious little to boast of anymore.
