Besides the actual show at the Frontier Park Exhibition Hall,additional attractions are the Cheyenne Depot Museum, Wasatch Railroad Contractors, and the UP Steam shop, where there is rumored to be something big going on. Remember the Cheyenne Depot Museum has the famous C&S layout originally constructed by Harry Brunk. [

If you visit Wasatch RR Contractors,you will get to see the D&RGW 0577 caboose, and the Klondike Mines Locomotive, headed for Como. <-- Required NG Content!
Where else in the world would you be able to see all this in one day? Or two. Check the website for details on the shuttle bus that will get you onto UP property.
