Download or read book The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad written by Robert G. Athearn and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1977 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowhere better than in the history of its railroads is the growth of the Old West revealed, and for Colorado the development of the Denver and Rio Grande Western epitomizes the changes that took place between 1870 and the present. Robert G. Athearn's intimate knowledge of the West has enabled him to write a gripping account of the famous narrow-gauge Denver and Rio Grande as it inched its way south, then turned west into the Rockies. By f1883 it had joined with the Rio Grande Western to become Colorado's only line across the mountains. The Dotsero Cutoff and the six-mile Moffat Tunnel put Denver on a transcontinental line for the first time. Twelve maps and fifty-five illustrations help tell the story.

Download or read book Rails Around Denver written by Allan C. Lewis and published by Gremese Editore. This book was released on 2007 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the height of America's post-Civil War expansion, Colorado Territory was a land of great hope and opportunity. Forged at the confluence of commerce and geography, Colorado became a state in 1876, and Denver, the Queen City of the Plains. To address the growing need for efficient transportation throughout the state, early railroads such as the Kansas Pacific and the Denver and Rio Grande were built in the 1870s. Serving all of these routes was the Denver Union Depot with its commodious dual-gauged tracks. These "steel roads" would become the region's economic lifeblood, hauling freight and passengers to the booming mountain mining towns, returning with ores for processing, and serving as the direct link for passengers and freight between the Rocky Mountains and the industrialized East.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embark on an unforgettable adventure across the heartland of America and the breathtaking landscapes of the Canadian wilderness with Erik, a wanderer whose soul finds solace in the rhythmic cadence of train wheels. "Rocky Mountain Railroad Odyssey" weaves a tale of more than just tracks and stations-it's a story of human connection, love, and the unbreakable bond forged on the rails. Erik's passion for train travel takes him through the Midwest, the awe-inspiring Rocky Mountains, and along the picturesque West Coast. Yet, amidst the stunning vistas, he grapples with a persistent loneliness that shadows his every mile. It isn't until a chance encounter with the vivacious Candice in Reno, Nevada, that his journey takes a dramatic turn. Together, Erik and Candice embark on thrilling escapades, tracing the historic route of the legendary "Olympian Hiawatha" through the rugged mountains, and find themselves ensnared in the perilous world of the casino mafia. As Erik navigates treacherous terrain, the promise of true love seems distant, leaving him to traverse the solitary roads of his heart. However, fate has other plans. In the town of Jasper, Erik's path intersects with Amelia, a radiant spirit from Edmonton. With her, the sun rises anew in his life, illuminating a path that winds along the Pacific, from the vibrant streets of Vancouver to the sun-kissed shores of San Diego. Their love story blossoms amidst the rhythmic symphony of wheels against tracks. Little do they know, a shadow looms over their idyllic world-a shadow that threatens to eclipse their newfound happiness. "Rocky Mountain Railroad Odyssey" is a captivating blend of travelogue and romance, where the grandeur of legendary trains like the California Zephyr, The Empire Builder, The Canadian, and even the Milwaukee Road become the backdrop for a love story that defies all odds. "Step aboard, and let the journey of a lifetime begin."
Download or read book Gulf To Rockies written by Richard C. Overton and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2015-01-16 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gulf to Rockies is a chapter in the business and economic history of the American West and the story of two of the most colorful railroad builders of the nineteenth century. Throughout the 1860s the mineral treasures of Colorado were virtually inaccessible for lack of railroads. Even after a hectic decade of building in the 1870s, the state faced a new sort of isolation: every railroad crossing her borders was controlled by the Union Pacific or the Santa Fe. As a result, the Rocky Mountain region could not hope to compete with the Midwest for the business of the Atlantic seaboard. To remedy this situation, John Evans, former governor of Colorado, organized in 1881 a railroad to run southward from Denver as the first link in a cheap rail-water route via the Gulf of Mexico to the East. Meanwhile ambitious Fort Worth citizens had incorporated the Fort Worth and Denver City in 1873. Not a rail was laid on either road, however, until General Grenville M. Dodge, famed builder of the Union Pacific and the Texas Pacific, took up the Texas project and joined forces with Evans to create the Gulf-to-Rockies route. It took seven years for these men and their associates to mobilize funds and complete the Fort Worth–Denver line, and another decade to establish the system’s independence and solve its financial problems in the face of drought, depression, and intense competition. Gulf to Rockies was written under special agreements with Northwestern University and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad, whereby the university relieved Mr. Overton of a part of his duties in order that he might have time for research and writing and the railroad undertook to bear the cost of the research. The Burlington also permitted him free access to all company records and granted him unrestricted freedom to publish his findings.
