The March 2, 1933 Colorado Transcript announced that the Colorado & Southern railroad was offering "fresh air" passenger service through Clear Creek canyon. Although passenger trains had been discontinued in 1927, the rails were still in place, used for freight trains.
The railroad had a specially adapted automobile that was equipped with small locomotive engines and wheels suitable for train tracks. "The car is operated only when five first-class tickets are purchased for the service."
