Bumping this thread with a question:

There was an old western ghost town called Buckskin Joe where a lot of old westerns were filmed that was also open to tourists. It was off hwy 50 on the road that led to the Royal Gorge Bridge. They had a couple mile probably 15" or so gauge train next to the western town that took you out to an overlook above the gorge.

Here's an April 18, 2021 photograph of the Royal Gorge train:

Above the front of the train, there appears to be a building, a line and two bridges -- is that where the Buckskin Joe line was?
