Re: Walk to the Wilder Mine
Thanks for posting this Jerry. Wish we'd had that photo on the hike up to
Wilder mine during the convention. For anyone who doesn't have the
Stemwinder CD or one of the original Stemwinders from back

Janey knuckle
Johnny Graybeal,
Do you still need a knuckle for a Janey coupler on one of the boxcars? I might have one. Could you send a picture or drawing of what you need?
