All Aboard! Walter Knott's sought to buy pieces of an authentic railroad in Colorado's Denver and Rio Grande Western.

Restored in the 1950s by Walter Knott, this Wild West gem still echoes with the stories of miners, outlaws, and pioneers. So glad Sherry Rowden and I decided to make a pit stop here on our way back to Vegas! ️ #CalicoGhostTown #OldWest | Kanoe Gibson Nitta | Facebook
