Our new 104-page magazine about Colorado Railroads and the companion 1-hour DVD are winging their way to your mailbox or to your favorite retailer. They are packed with stories and images of main line operations, narrow gauge favorites, and some surprises — the rebirth of Denver Union Station, Denver’s bold light rail and commuter train initiatives, and an inside look at the railroad test center in Pueblo. We think you’ll like them as much as we like Colorado railroads, which is why we are going there soon. We’d like to invite you to join us.
First off, I’ll be in Durango May 6 for opening day festivities at the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., I’ll be on hand at the depot for a meet and greet and to show off our special Colorado magazine. The railroad hosts a free hot dog day every year as a thank you to the local community as the season begins for this busy line. There’s also cowboy music with the band Bar D, kids characters, and other fun stuff. Then at 5:30 p.m. at the Strater Hotel, we’ll host the world premier showing of Colorado Railroads video. The Strater will offer an open bar. Come and join us and enjoy the show!
If you can’t join us there, we’ll see you at the Rocky Mountain Railroad Club meeting on May 10 or at the Colorado Railroad Museum on June 11. And if you read our special or watched the DVD and now you’re hungry for an extensive outing in Colorado, we’ve got that too. We’ll visit all the tourist railroads, take a private tour of the Durango roundhouse, and enjoy great Colorado scenery.
