Take a step back in time aboard the Georgetown Loop Railroad – one of the most complex railroad loops in the world today. The steam engine locomotive rumbles passengers over the Devils Gate High Bridge and through some fantastic mountain scenery. The train travels between the historic mining towns of Georgetown and Silverplume.
The original track and bridges were built in 1877, dismantled and sold for scrap metal in 1939 then rebuilt in 1975 with a little help from the Colorado Historical Society. The roundtrip takes roughly one hour and 10 minutes.
Adults – $13, children – $8.50 |
