Paul’s Blog – November 5, 2022

On Saturday, November 5, we had a small, dedicated crew come out to do the most important work at the Museum. Dwight Maxey, Colin Mellin and Paul Brown removed blown-in weeds from the collection area, and then pulled out weeds that had grown into our new fence. This work is important because it keeps the Museum grounds cleaned up and looking professional, and more importantly, removes a fire danger that could be catastrophic to the Museum. If you have ever seen tumble weeds burn, then you understand.

We also had a few minutes at the end of the day to power wash the dirt and grime off of the Massey Furguson, Bobcat, and Case tractors. Like they say, a clean machine is a happy machine!

I have included a few pictures of cleaning up weeds for your entertainment.

  1. Hi Paul! Nice work on the weeds!

    This is probably a silly question, but where is the gift shop and what are its hours? We want to book a Christmas ride.

    Thanks and full steam ahead! Dara

    1. Hi Dara! Our Gift Shop will be open during our Christmas events. You may purchase tickets for the train ride at the Gift Shop on the days of the events. The dates are Saturday December 10, Friday and Saturday the 16th and 17th, and Christmas Eve, Saturday, December 24. Be sure to follow our Blog to get the latest event news! The Gift Shop is located behind the Pueblo Union Depot building (which is also where the trains depart and arrive), but the Gift Shop is only open during the events.
