The governor and backers are building support for a potential passenger train between Pueblo and Fort Collins, which would face voters and a narrow window for federal funding.
Operating it with Amtrak on freight rail lines could be a good start (can we just Eminent Domain the ones for Boulder and Longmont already…). I hope that it eventually connects down to Trinidad or La Junta to connect to the Amtrak Southwest Chief. And up to Cheyenne. AND gets new right of way and high speed rail. That commuter corridor could be a lot more efficient than continually crying about I-25.
