OSIER

Osier Station Colorado. Located high up in a difficult to reach mountain pass of the Rocky Mountains, this 1800’s steam train station is a step back in history.

Let's do it ! We just love that place. It's not likely that we will be so fortunate as to have three ancient steam engines there working at the same time, like we did before.
