In August of 2018, we received a phone call from the realtor of the old Buckskin Joe property. We had visited the property a year prior to see if we could find a way to purchase the whole lot; unfortunetly we couldn't pursue it further. He had told us that the new owners were not interested in the trains, thus they could be sold seperate. We made an offer on the trains, rail, all the tools and extra parts that come the trains and the billionare, who purchased the whole Buckskin Joe property and moved the historic buildings to his personal ranch, Bill Koch, accepted our offer. We are now the proud owners of the Royal Gorge Scenic Railway (RGSR). We are still working on bringing the rest of the equiment and rail back to our ranch. We have until December 31, 2018 to have everything removed from the property. Because this has been such a huge investment, thanks to the Thomas family, we have started a fundraiser to help with our relocation costs.

Our future goal is to create a miniature railway muscuem and open to the public in Northern Colorado. Ways you can help include, but is not limited to, volunteering to help with the removal of the rail, which is physically demanding work, donating to help us with the costs of relocation, or sharing our fundraiser with your friends.

We would appreciate any and all support you can offer.
