Treatment Guidance
Treatment guidance provides recommendations for the preservation and repair of the Railroad Resources.
General Consider eliminating the train easement within Central Park. • Consider eliminating the historic train easement in Central Park as the rolling stock are no longer associated with the park. Structures The three rolling stock structures are associated with Colorado's railroad transportation history, particularly with narrow-gauge tracks, and are important features to preserve. • Preserve and repair each structure for continued interpretive use and display. • Coordinate with CRHM to ensure regular assessments of each rolling stock are conducted to identify and prioritize repairs needed to maintain their integrity and to allow for continued interpretive use. Top Priorities The following actions to improve or repair physical features or landscape characteristics are the top recommended priorities. These actions meet the following criteria: impact for safety / stabilization; threat of loss of integrity; poor condition; potential impact due to enhancement; critical path / adjacency to other planned work; relevancy to other current plans. 1 - Coordinate and/or conduct repairs for the safety and stabilization of the rolling stock. ○ Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad Coach No. 280: Repair roof leak to eliminate damage to the interiors, including seat upholstery, and repairs to the ceiling and walls using in-kind materials. ○ Denver & Rio Grande Caboose No. 04990: Repair the rear platform by either replacing the wood flooring using in-kind materials or by repainting the existing wood flooring.
2 - Assist in securing funding for the preservation of the rolling stock.
