The historic narrow gauge train travels between the towns of Georgetown and Silver Plume, both rich in mining and railroad history. The round-trip train ride is approximately one hour and ten minutes in duration. The Public Service Company of Colorado took over ownership of the station in 1924 and recently, in conjunction with Historic Georgetown Inc., opened the doors of the station to the public as an energy museum. Much of the original equipment in the building is still being used today. Located at 399 Sixth Street.
