One other thing comes to mind. There were many "interesting" types who summered and a few "wintered" in CC. There was an artist gallery below the RR grade not far from the depot. There was a young lady would occasionally sunbath topless on the roof of the building on sunny mornings. We frequently "slipped"out of the depot first run without blowing the departure whistle just to enjoy the Central City mountain scenery. 
She would jump off of her lawn chair and dive through the doorway. She was a persistent lady because it happened more than once! JP
