I hope to get this picture reproduced in a painting for the sitting room in our house (before I head back). Somehow I've got to get in touch with Mr. Gerstein for permission to paint this. If you have his contact information please arrange to have it sent. Thanks.

All ' best!

Prarie,

Send me an e-mail and I can get you in touch with Nate. You don't list an e-mail address so he asked me to try and get in touch with you. You can reach me at cshaffer18 @ yahoo.com (Just remove the spaces)

Chris,

Thanks kindly for the offer. No, I do not list an e-mail address because of work-related reasons. Further, my personal e-mail is going to change in the New Year.

Indeed, I have been mulling over the idea of getting a Forney locomotive painted ever since I first saw it on a transit-related site. This one from the 2009 Meet really stands out, particularly because it is from the famous Nate Gerstein, whom I have read about.

I will be in touch with you in the New Year once I know where I will be at.

Meanwhile, please offer my regards to Mr. Gerstein and congratulate him for winning the best of show in the Popular Category.

As a token of my appreciation for your kindness, please allow me to post this pic for you, (photographer: Kevin Madore)

Thanks for the kind help.

Good enough Prarie, but why not just get a free Yahoo account or something. You can take it wherever you go and always access it - no need to mess with a work account or those silly internet provider e-mail accounts you have to change everytime you change service.
