Manitou & Pike's Peak Cog Railway Company |
Description: |
Finally took a trip up to see the Pike's Peak Cog Railway. Not much to look at motive power wise, but cog rack railways are pretty nifty and I'd never seen one in person. I'll be back when the steam engine is running. |

This ex-SP engine is on "home" rails. I would consider this the Rio Grande, but hey, when these were brand new, this was technically Southern Pacific Transportation Company Property. |
