Title: I miss YampaBob...
Post by: Santa Fe buff on May 28, 2010, 10:41:02 PM
I still remember him, and how he helped us all as a respected member of Bachmann... Even how he hates quotes.  :)

Anyone know of his whereabouts? How is he doing? I know he's too bad to use the computer. I hope it's not the worst... anyway, I made a video that I wanted to dedicate to him, and so I did.

I write to Bob regularly and he seems in good spirits despite his inability to see. He called a couple of weeks ago to say hi and hopes the gang here are getting along. I'll send him the link and I'll tell him you are thinking of him.

I have several powered cars on my layout, due to Bob's help.  I even have a charming 2-8-0 Cab-forward that is powered by HIS tender design.  Bob sure knew a lot!!  He always helped.  Was never critical.  A GREAT modeler.......

Thanks for all your help, Bob!!

Hey PD,

Next time you talk to Yampa Bob, tell him Clif in Texas says hello.
I have sent him several e-mails in the last few months, but never heard a word back.  I would have thought his wife might be reading them for him.

That was a great video. Yampa Bob along with Jim Banner were one of the first people to extend a welcoming hand to the message board. He gave great advice. I hope someday he may say hello again.
