For nearly 17 years, the impeccably dressed, striking couple has frequently strolled the platform of Grand Canyon Railway's Depot. The obviously devoted-to-one-another couple confidently walks amongst the passengers waiting to board the morning train to the Grand Canyon. They chat with folks of all ages, pause to admire beautiful babies and swap travel tales with seasoned travelers. Many of these passengers had little clue that they were conversing with Max and Thelma Biegert, the down-to-earth yet savvy owners of the GCR.
