Three Minutes Until Departure! It's 4:57PM on a beautiful fall afternoon and the last call for passengers on a sold out Train No. 55, the D&GVR's southbound Mountain Explorer, has already echoed across the platform of the Elkins Depot, while the train's power, a matched FP7 set, idles impatiently on Track 1. An Elkins Switcher led by BL2 #82 waits on Track 2 for the scheduled train to clear the lead, before departing the yard to switch local industries. Who would have thought this scene would have even been possible again in Elkins?
