CMO Report December 5, 2012
The passenger truck project for the B-8 is complete. We need to pick up the 28” paper wheel sets we have in Durango to have operational wheels sets. Axel journals on freight car axel are too short for swing bolster trucks, we assembled the trucks with the freight axels we had on hand. Below are 2 each trucks and a truck bolster still in need of green paint.
There's something amazing about trains. The familiar whistle has always promised adventure. The gentle rock of the rails has set the rhythm of our lives. Experience it again at the Colorado Railroad Museum with over 100 narrow and standard gauge steam and diesel locomotives, passenger cars, cabooses and G-scale garden railway on our 15-acre railyard.
Also, see our exhibit galleries, renowned library, roundhouse restoration facility and working turntable. Visit the General Store with thousands of train gifts for every rail fan. Group rates and programs available.
Museum open daily 9:00am — 5:00pm
