I am so fortunate to have met this true gentleman and major railroading legend.
We need more gentlemen like him in this world.
He loved and enjoyed telling his life story at a Winterail program a few years ago.
It seems kind of appropriate that he passes while the BNSF is finishing the 3rd main from Keenbrook to Cajon Summit.
I hope the BNSF will PERMANENTLY name the new Cajon Summit after him .
A Control Point should definitely be named in his honor at the new 3 track Summit.
Thank you for passing on this news to us!
Rest in Peace Chard !
