The above image shows an excursion car at the end of train somewhere along Clear Creek. This photo was originally from the "Mining Reporter" magazine, regarding a Clear Creek excursion on September 28, 1907.
Most of the photos of the excursion cars I assume were for trips up to the Georgetown Loop. However, there were also various excursions beginning in Black Hawk, and then running up the Gilpin Tram. All or most of those excursionists would have ridden the 3' gauge to Black Hawk before transferring to the 2' gauge excursion cars.
Chris Walker's prior posts mentioned some of these, but there were a lot more. I do not want to hijack this thread and throw a lot of Gilpin Tram stuff on, so I will post it separately on the thread, Along the Gilpin Tramway - A Closer Look
