USA - Williams & Denver - Jim & Rosslyn



Well the "train" (model and 12" to foot) related activities continues...


We traveled from San Diego to Phoenix by plane and then drove to Williams.


Williams



Williams is the home of the Grand Canyon Railway so we got to see some of their rolling stock and locomotives.

Denver


We visited the Colorado Railroad Museum and Caboose Hobbies during our time there.


Colorado Raillroad Museum



We spent most of the day wandering around the Museum and we think it was one of the best museums we saw on the trip.






















Model Railroad



In the basement of the Museum office you will find the Denver HO Club.











Static Displays










The video covers a run around the museum, the garden railway with electric and live steam and the club HO model railroad.




Local Shunt



Driving back from the Museum towards Caboose Hobbies we can across a local industry shunt....





Caboose Hobbies



We were lucky to see them before its demise...







Stay tuned for the next installment!
