A Google search of Rich shows he is in many places. Must be a busy man!
Rich has always been a busy guy. Aside from being a steam locomotive engineer, he is also an aircraft pilot and gets about in fashion.

I always knew Rich is a sharp dresser, but didn't know he was into fashion.
I thought he bought a RV and was going to travel. Rich, lets see some pictures of your travels. Don
Larry, I would love to have you visit.
Last week I read here he was hiding out in someones basement.

Rich...? Rich who?....

Good one, Don!
That one might need a diesel pusher.
Ramming speed!
William, you mean a lash up with a Trainmaster? Don
He needs to be doing OGR Video #14! But, I imagine he's enjoying himself instead. I really hope to see more OGR Videos of others layouts. Rich did an ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS job!

You are correct, this bloke, whoever he is, is much better looking. <snicker!>

Nah, you mean 'driving' a Trainmaster lash-up.
The man in the white shirt and tie is Leapin Larry, saying Wow, I am now retired to, for real. I hope that Rich is enjoying himself in his semi retirement roll and simply enjoying traveling. His RV is so nice. Hello Rich, wherever you R...

LOL!!! Now THAT is funny!
I see you got this shot just after I got her out of the paint shop. That’s our new motor home.
We traded this one...
Seriously, The Lovely and Gracious LINDA and I are not retired yet. We’re still doing some of the behind the scenes admin work for the magazine from a home office in our new home in Columbus, Ohio. I’m still doing some flying, but I’ve begun the process of winding down that career.
I am no longer a licensed locomotive engineer. My certification expired on May 31 and I chose not to recertify. I retired from the 765 steam crew in 2016 and now have no reason to maintain my engineer certification.
This is our REAL land yacht...
One more thing...in September, the Lovely and Gracious LINDA and I will celebrate 50 years together...48 of ‘em happy! 😇
