A Leadville, Colorado & Southern passenger train is just arriving at Leadville after a scenic trip up the branch toward Fremont Pass on August 1, 1993. This line can trace its heritage to narrow gauge Denver, South Park & Pacific’s route from Denver to Leadville, and is surrounded by an area steeped in rich mining history. Both No. 1714 and 1918 are former Northern Pacific/Burlington Northern EMD GP9s.
