Ok... so this gent isn't really a Hobo. But, he is up at Cumbres more than most of us. :smiley16:

Any guesses?

No, I think it is Buster who has found a new job since Myth Busters went off the air. He is now the Cumbres section house guard.

Looking at the close up of the train board, the C&TS trains are numbered 2 & 3, I thought they were 215 and 216 just like the old San Juan.

He does look better sitting up! My mom would administer a stern warning if she saw him like that. You are lucky she is gone Mr.

My Mother recommended that when I go out in public, I should wear a 3 gallon bucket for a hat. (I lost it in a saloon somewhere.)
