In the 8 years visiting Colorado when two our our sons attended the Air Force Academy, we missed visiting the museum and this layout. Thanks for sharing those great photos, Joe!

A fantastic western layout. With narrow gauge, too.Thank you, Joe, for giving us a peak🚂🇨🇦🇺🇲🙋

[@atjoe1972]

Thank you very much 😎 I’ve been a fan of the layout since the early Seventies. It’s a really neat experience. 👍😊😜🚂🇺🇸🇨🇦

[@4everdc302]

70s. Oh wow eh. Great, it is still going👍

[@atjoe1972]

They just celebrated their 55th anniversary at the museum. I think it was about 1970 or 71 when I saw the layout on my very first school field trip 😜🚂🇺🇸🇨🇦@@4everdc302

Incredible layout with a lot of intricate details and realistic scenes! Wow!

[@atjoe1972]

Thanks Rob 👍😎 I need to go back and spend some time taking more pictures and videos of it. They have most of it behind glass and I was getting a lot of glare. If you’re ever out this way, I highly recommend checking it out 😉🚂

Great video @atjoe1972🚂🚂. I love seeing train displays as it brings back great memories of when my boys were little.

[@atjoe1972]

Thank you GiGi 👍😎 I’m glad the video brought back some happy memories 😊🚂

[@jacobpoohsmother]

@@atjoe1972 yes my boys loved trains. They had overalls and a hat to match!!!

[@atjoe1972]

That’s great you had them all decked out with the hat and overalls 😎🚂 I still have my original Engineer hat that I got riding the Durango & Silverton back in 1970. Some great memories. Do you have any of your grandkids interested in trains?@@jacobpoohsmother

[@jacobpoohsmother]

@@atjoe1972 I’m trying but they are not close to a track. Next time we are there will take the boys to try and catch a few. Soon I will be making them a few prints for their wall and I got some handmade cards from them for my birthday with trains and birds.

[@atjoe1972]

That sounds like a great idea taking them out and watching trains together. That’s really cool about your birthday cards. Best kind of birthday gift ever 😎🚂 @@jacobpoohsmother

Great video Brian! This place is on my list to visit when we go out west.

[@atjoe1972]

[@OldcampRanch]

Pretty amazing 👍🏻

[@atjoe1972]

Truly a neat layout, thanks for checking out the video. 👍😎

[@crashryanphoto]

LOL ... Doc Brown! Just rewatched Back to the Future again!

[@atjoe1972]

It’s funny, I missed Doc Brown on the Courthouse in person. It wasn’t until I was reviewing the photos, I saw him. Back to the Future is a classic. Thank you for checking out the video 🚂

Colorado does a great job with their train museums. They are quite a few of them in the state. It's beautiful. ESPECIALLY, the fall colors. How is the weather there?

[@atjoe1972]

We are fortunate to have so many great train museums out here. You would love the weather, cool and rainy, with highs in the low 70’s.

[@SarahsAtticOfTreasures]

@@atjoe1972 I would love the weather.

Pikes Peak just got its first snow of the season ☃❄@@SarahsAtticOfTreasures
