It’s #TriviaTuesday at the Colorado Railroad Museum! This week, in anticipation of the release of our latest Colorado Rail Annual: Rails Around The Table Mountains, our question is, in what year was the first Funicular Railway opened for operation in Golden, Colorado?

Want to learn more about the Railroads of the Museum’s hometown? Pre-Orders for Colorado Rail Annual No. 35 placed before January 31, 2024 receive free continental shipping and a signed and numbered edition – ColoradoRailroadMuseum.org/NewAnnual!

Participants are invited to submit their responses as a comment or message! Last Question: Can you name one of the railroads that operated in Golden, Colorado? Answer: Correct answers included: The Colorado Central and the Colorado & Southern!

Last time we received 4 correct responses, our winner selected by drawing is _Sean_Oldfield, who responded on Instagram! We also received a correct response from inewyorkcentralrr, ColoradoTrainNerd-xc9io and JacksIO812!
