Description
Train in Cripple Creek by Lynn Sprowl
Early in the morning, a worker is preparing the "tourist" train for the days travels. Departing from an 1894 vintage depot, the brightly painted Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad runs along four miles of track as it takes passengers through forested high-country scenery.This narrow gauge heritage railroad operates seasonal tourist trains between Cripple Creek and the city's outskirts to the south. The railroad uses a revitalized section of the original Midland Terminal Railway and the Florence and Cripple Creek Railroad. The railroad's one station and around half of its route is located within the Cripple Creek Historic District.
