Golden History Moment
Isn’t this a great illustration? According to the Denver Public Library, it first appeared in the January 1, 1881 edition of The Colorado Miner (a Georgetown paper).
For those of us in Golden, it serves as a reminder that in about two weeks, we will be celebrating the 150th anniversary of the arrival of the Colorado Central Railroad.
