UP doesnt run on those tracks anymore but the go cart should have no problem. That mine started in the 1800's The town above is called Gilman it's a way cool ghost town we might go explore tomorrow.

I still kick myself for not taking the Durango to Silverton narrow gauge trip when I was in Durango in '92. Me and a bud were traveling and we got jobs with the carneval in Grand Junction and followed them to Durango. Carny pay is lousy but it's a gas. Girls, ladies, and more girls. Hormones a pumpin.'

When that old coal fired train fired up the cloud of black smoke was something to see. Way wrong in PC terms but a trip.
