For those of you who may have past issues of Trains: I am trying to locate a SF article which was published in the 1980’s or perhaps the early 90’s. It centered on the rr @ Gallup,NM and may have been titled ‘Dad’s Train Ride’. Any possible help would make my day. I have subscribed to every issue since 7/80 but somewhere in the past that one got tossed out thinking it was not worth keeping.
Try the back issues on TRAINS. Might be there.[:)]
Probably one of these 2 - from utilizing the “Index of Magazines” search down at the bottom of the page. I think I still have these issues, but they’re presently in a box in the attic someplace. Hope this is helpful.
