One of the most enjoyable activities of the Denver, South Park & Pacific Historical
Society is their annual convention. Narrow gauge enthusiasts from as far away as
England have attended these gatherings.
Sites for these gatherings alternate from
year to year to cover practically every mile of the narrow gauge trackage of the
Colorado & Southern. Sites alternate between Bailey, Buena Vista, Fairplay, Gunnison, Idaho Springs and
Leadville. Although we generally return to the same location every seven years, there
is always something new to see. No matter how often we walk or ride a given section
of this historic line, something new can be found.
2011 will see the Convention in the Denver area for the first time. While the "Big City" has eaten up almost all signs that this, and other narrow gauge railroads once traveled to and from this city, There are still things to be seen if you know where to look. Many of our members live in Denver and have dug deep to find what few relics remain. Join us for this coming Convention......
2010 Convention Details will be coming soon.....
Enjoy some photographs from earlier conventions.
