Here’s a closeup of the 844, still looking pretty good after all these years!
Cheyenne Frontier Days Train
Each year the 844 takes passengers from Union Station in Denver north on an excursion to Cheyenne Frontier Days. This popular ride sells out long before the event, so I always manage to NOT have the opportunity to ride the train.
Instead, one year I chased it! Oh what a ride that was! It wasn’t my intent to go very far, but it was so much fun I found myself in Cheyenne! This year I’ll make my calendar of July 23, 2011 with some luck I’ll be chasing this iron horse again! Wanna come?
