Congratulations to the owners, staff, and volunteers that have worked for many years to bring this exciting project (vision)
to this "operational" stage.

I personally know many of this group and can vouch for the pleasure that this attraction will bring to many riders in the future.

Well done!

It is well worth the visit out to Mossleigh AB, about  a 1 hour drive southeast of Calgary AB.

Aspen Crossing has a first class RV camp site, gift shop, and dining facility.

Good luck to all involved.

All three cars came from CP. The two coachs{one has tables and chairs} are ex Dakota Minnesota and Eastern and were part of the DM&E puchase. CP bought the Daylight baggage car but then decided it was surplus. The open air car is an ex CP gon. The caboose is also ex CP.

the SP baggage car may be the former Yes Dear from Portland, part of the downsizing needed to depart the Brooklyn Roundhouse.   Arlen

Looks like 85 lb rail but possibly even 70 lb rail.
