Help Save the 1906 DNW&P Depot in Kremling

The Union Pacific Railroad has decided to eliminate the historic 1906 Kremmling Depot. This is the last remaining frame DNW&P depot of this floor plan. Some of the Grand County Historical Association board members met with railroad representatives on March 18th, 2008 to discuss preserving the depot.

The GCHA needs our help. A petition is being formed which will be handed over to the Railroad in hopes that they will do whatever is necessary to preserve this wonderful historical structure for Kremmling, Grand County and train enthusiasts from all over. If you live in the county, please call the museum at 970-725-3939 to find out where you can sign the petition. If you live outside the area, please print and sign the section below and mail it to:

Grand County Historical Association
110 East Byers Ave.
P.O. Box 165
Hot Sulphur Springs, CO 80451

Welcome to www.moffatroad.org, the official web site of the Denver & Salt Lake Historical Society and the Rollins Pass Restoration Association.

The purpose of the Denver & Salt Lake Historical Society is to research and preserve the history of the Denver & Salt Lake and its predecessor, the Denver Northwestern & Pacific.  Our primary function is to find and present unpublished material before it is lost forever.  The Society publication, the Corona Telegraph, covers the DNW&P and D&SL up to and including the merger years with the Rio Grande.  From time to time, we publish additional plans and data sheets that do not fit in a magazine format.   A members-only email group is available for on-line exchange of information.  Members are also invited to participate in Occasional Field Excursions to visit and discuss features of the railroad where it all happened.

The Rollins Pass Restoration Association, a non-profit organization, was incorporated in 1983 by a group of people who, like David Moffat, had a dream.  We would support the restoration of the Needle's Eye Tunnel, assist in preserving as much of the original road as possible, and work towards restoring the road to the condition as in 1979: a rural mountain road which would be used by two wheel drive vehicles.

At www.moffatroad.org, you will also find a bibliography and a set of links to items relating to the DNW&P, D&SL and other items associated to the Moffat Road.  In addition, be sure to check out Postmarked Arrow, An On-Line Scrapbook of The Moffat Road for a virtual ride on The Moffat.

Thanks, and enjoy your ride!
