Narrow gauge in Cripple Creek, Colorado
This narrow gauge steam train, or what is left of it, used to run from Cripple Creek in Colorado, to Victor. Now adays only a small part of the line is operated, but the aim is to raise money for restouring the entire line, as I understand. That will be something. A very nice narrow gauge steam railroad in this small town, consisting mainly of a fire station and a dozencasinos.
When we visited, it was the day of the United States Army, which offered a great variety of entertainment, as the war between the nazis and the US army. Guess who won ;-)

Cripple Creek & Victor Mining District
I headed out to the Cripple Creek, Colorado area today with the quadcopter. If you're ever in the area, you owe it to yourself to visit this special place. The Mollie Kathleen Mine is WELL worth the visit; a great way to experience mining in a realistic way (and I know, I have a degree in Mining Engineering and worked underground hardrock mines for part of my career.) If you're a gambler, you'll have fun here as well, but if you want to see some well preserved mining structures, head on over to Victor and hike the American Eagles Overlook trail. Thanks to my dad for the still photos. See more of his photos from around the world at russ-lewis.com.
