No More Google Ads, No More Ads Period
There is a change coming to corailroads.com within the next day or so. It's with a bit of relief that I'm taking the ads down. A for-profit site puts me in a different realm, legally, than I want to be. Most importantly, I've always loved railroads and no one has to pay me to do this. So, enjoy the ads while they last, if you really do appreciate ads in this era of media saturation. For the rest of us, the eyesores will soon depart.
As always, thanks for reading!

Cold Weather Can Cripple Railroads
With the temperature at 15 degrees below zero outside and the winds at 20 MPH, we had a wind chill near 42 below last week! It got me to thinking, we all know how Colorado's snow can snarl a railroad, but what cold weather problems can railroaders face? Aside from the obvious frostbite, which can occur in as little as 5 minutes in these conditions, what else can extreme cold do to make work on a railroad even more difficult and strenuous?
