With tickets to the Museum’s popular, theatrical THE POLAR EXPRESS™ production going on-sale today (to Museum members) and to the public next Tuesday, September 29, our question for today is a straightforward one: In what year did the Colorado Railroad Museum first offer tickets to experience this magical, multi-part theatrical experience?
 
1. 2012
2. 2015
3. 2020
4. 2014
 
Don’t know the answer? Hint: Denver & Rio Grande Western steam locomotive No. 491 was first operated at the Museum the very same year! This Big Train Tour has that answer if you don’t know it offhand: https://heyor.ca/tB1AkQ.
