What's going on at Central City? (video)

My family made a trip up to Central City in May, my first visit there since 1990 when I hoped to ride the train (only to find No. 71 etc. sitting dormant). I was curious to see what became of the boarding site since a group laid track there again in 2021. I found a whole lot more than I expected. I made the video below to share what I found and to see if anyone has any current info on what's going on up there.
Enjoy,
Kurt
Here is a post with a little more background.

Thanks for the video. I’m really surprised to see all that is going on, and how much track has been laid.

Me too. After they laid some track in 2021, it seemed there was silence on their website, Youtube channel, Facebook channel, and elsewhere. In the meantime they seemed to have been able to extend a good amount of track and move 5 or so cars up there. It's hard to believe news wasn't shared somehow.
