Phil is a kewl guy. His railroad is fun to ride on PLUS Rio has a great time jumping on and off the trains. 5 stars.

[@russkepler]

I was the first steamer to run on Phillip's track with my 3 truck Shay almost 10 years ago. He's added somebto the track but i think he's close to 2.5 miles of track. Fun track for 2 1/2" scale equipment. The name is Ute Pass Railroad.

This is pretty cool! A train in your own backyard literally! I like how the dog seems to be keeping tabs on the train's operation! Is it fairly easy to operate?

[@JohnSmith-rr2ti]

That is amazing...and nobody even knows about it, even in Durango!!

[@kleetus92]

At the end there I was gonna say, wait a sec, that sounds like a Farmall! Yep...

[@mr.skipper4544]

Looks like a ton of fun

[@DeathValleyLumberCompany]

It’s a blast

[@nittygrittygarage5497]

About 1994 I put a roof on a house that a Miniature railroad enthusiast had designed and built with No construction experience. The House was a close copy of a Two Story Southwestern train station, complete with Tower. I wonder if this is the same place? Just a few Miles out of Durango.

[@DeathValleyLumberCompany]

The station here is an exact replica of the Rico depot on the RGS It’s the only replica depot in south western Colorado

[@patricksammon8406]

@@DeathValleyLumberCompany If I recall correctly, the Owner/builder of the house and His miniature RR was a photographer for Architectural Digest and House Beautiful and other magazines. If this is the owner or related to. There were only two of us that put the new roof of the train station replica house. . My boss was a local legend master roofer and I was His only worker. (CS&M Roofing) I remember that job clear as day. The Owner of the property was ambitious, and was at the time constantly talking about wanting a teens model T Depot Hack. ( I wonder if You ever got it?) It's good to see You what You've done with Your railroad since We did Your roof almost 30 years ago.
