Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad, Colorado
This short line brings passengers through the historic mining district of Cripple Creek. Small steam locomotives pull open-air coaches past mines, ghost towns, and rugged mountain scenery. Narration explains the rich gold-mining history of the region. Though just four miles long, the ride is packed with charm and offers a step back into Colorado’s frontier days.
