The Cog Railway at Pikes Peak is one of the longest running attractions in American history. First built in 1889, the railway began major reconstruction and renovations in 2017. CBS News put together an interesting clip about the history of the Cog Railway and the major renovations that have taken place over the last four years.
The experience of the Cog Railway is virtually the same as it was 132 years ago, but it still attracts thousands of visitors every year.
There’s just something awesome about riding a train up a 14,000′ mountain, isn’t there?
