The Present
The last standing Single Stall Engine House in Colorado has been
restored to its 1901 grandeur. This is the centerpiece of All Aboard
Westcliffe’s historical Railroad District. An Interpretive
Center has been built and furnished to help tell the story of the
railroad and its link to the mining and ranching heritage of this
beautiful valley. A restoration workshop has been assembled and equipped
to refurbish the rolling stock and to assemble exhibits, the above-mentioned
engine house is being readied to serve in its new capacity as a small
railroad museum to showcase an era of steam locomotive transportation
that served a remote high mountain valley.
