Explore the many railroads that exist in Colorado!
I apologize
about the lack of content being added to this site. I haven't been
super motivated to add anything lately. I plan on updating this site
with new photos and updating the current lines with brand-new info!
There are many different railroads in Colorado; mainlines, branch lines, short lines, heritage, and more! Several active lines, and even lots of defunct lines. This website is still new, so there's only info for a select number of lines.
This site has lots of rich information of the railroads in Colorado! All of the information submitted to the site is fact-checked!
There are tons of photos on the site, taken by many photographers around Colorado! If you want to submit a photo, send it to coloradorailroadphotos@gmail.com!
Amtrak 6 slowly crawls down Blue Mountain, with an ALC-42 trailing third; taken by Andrew H. (@track_warrant_763).
BNSF and the City of Longmont will be closing two of their at-grade crossings by 2025.
Amtrak has put it's new ALC-42s on the Empire Builder. They have gone through a lot of issues in the first couple days of being in service. The first ALC-42s will likely be put on the California Zephyr and ran through Colorado later this year.
Two cities along the BNSF Front Range Subdivision, Louisville and Westminster, are becoming quiet zones, which means train crews are not required to sound their horn regularly.
