Right On, Will -

IIRC there was a need for Colo. Spgs.– Denver rail service when I was at Colorado College in the early sixties. IMHO getting some of the current heavy traffic off I-25 from Pew-Town to Boulder is a much more pressing need than hauling skiers and tourists to from Denver to SteamBoat and Craig.
