Pikes Peak Route (Colorado Midland, Midland Terminal Railways)

Описание к видео Pikes Peak Route (Colorado Midland, Midland Terminal Railways)

The Colorado Midland was the first standard-gauge railroad to penetrate the Colorado Rockies. It connected with the Midland Terminal which served the legendary Cripple Creek mining district. Hundreds of historic photos enliven the history of both railroads. The video climaxes with motion pictures of the Midland Terminal—about 3 minutes of a 1930's passenger train, and 13 full-color minutes of ore and passenger trains in 1948-49. Listen to interviews with the crew on the very last train run by the railroad. Sadly, watch motion pictures of the scrapper lifting the rails.
