Back Story

My fondness for the DRGW, or Rio Grande if you will, has been with me since I can remember seeing my first train. Being that I was raised in the Denver Colorado area, that first train happened to be a Rio Grande train. Since I wanted to model Rio Grande motive power and equipment and have a different name for my model railroad, I decided I needed to come up with a back story to explain this. In my railroad world the Rio Gande made it to Santa Fe New Mexico with standard gauge track, even though in the real world the railroad serviced Santa Fe with narrow gauge track and has been long gone. I hope readers will enjoy what I have come up with. This is a very fictitious story. Click on the white “back story” hyper link to read the story.
