TRAIN
In addition to Colorado’s historic narrow-gauge railroads, the state sees significant train travel as well. Rail lines that once traveled across the state transporting gold and silver are now used to transport freight and passengers. Amtrak’s California Zephyr line makes the beautiful trip from Chicago to Emeryville, California. On its way, it makes a stop in Denver and passes through Fort Morgan, Fraser, Granby, Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction.
