          2012, we started looking for a
        
        
          new narrow gauge columnist, but we never
        
        
          could quite find the exact fit we were look-
        
        
          ing for. We love narrow gauge and wanted it
        
        
          to get some fair representation in our pages.
        
        
          We knewwe wanted a columnist who had experience in more
        
        
          than just Colorado narrow gauge. We feel it’s important to also give
        
        
          the eastern narrow gauge lines some coverage: the East Broad Top,
        
        
          the Tweetsie (East Tennessee &Western North Carolina RR), and of
        
        
          course, the Maine two-footers.
        
        
          Along comes Larry Smith in Atlanta, and he mentions he misses our
        
        
          Lite and Narrow column. I told Larry that we’ve been looking for a
        
        
          new Lite and Narrow columnist. Larry came back to me later in the
