Colorado Railroad Museum

On Saturday, we visited Colorado Railroad Museum, a virtual paradise for boys on a Saturday. And we have to say the girls were pretty interested, too.On Saturday, for just a few dollars more than the very reasonable family rate of $18, you can take unlimited rides behind the steam engine. So here our family is, ready for a ride, while the kind man who helps people board is taking our photo for us. This first ride was in an open car. The next ride we took was in a passenger car on velvet seats!


Here is the engine starting off, spouting steam and chugging smoke!


In the middle of the second round around the property, the engine stopped to take on water from the water house.
