    CITY OF DENVER CITY OF DENVER UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD CHICAGO & NORTH WESTERN RY. —PEED of the wind the grace and smoothness of an ar- row luxury and comfort of a smart club in brief, that is the "City of Denver" newest and finest Diesel- powered streamline train in the great Union Pacific-Chicago and North West- ern fleet. The "City of Denver" joins her companion trains, the "City of Los An- geles," the "City of San Francisco," and the "City of Portland," with Chicago to Denver route her domain traversing the run in 16 hours, cutting 91/4 hours off the former fastest train schedule. The "City of Denver" is 864 feet long —864 feet of speed, power and luxuri- ous riding comfort. It has 12 cars: two power cars, baggage car, baggage-mail car, baggage-tavern car, two coaches, diner-cocktail lounge, three sleeping cars and observation-bedroom car. The moment you enter this superb train, you feel its roominess—cars are 9 feet 6 inches wide between side walls, while the inside clear height in the cen- ter is 7 feet 103/4 inches.

Background This report examines the feasibility of reinstating Amtrak’s Pioneer route, which operated from 1977 to 1997 between Chicago, Illinois and Seattle, Washington via Denver, Colorado and Salt Lake City/Ogden, Utah. Amtrak was directed to perform this study by the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 (PRIIA) (Public Law 110‐432), which reauthorized Amtrak and tasked Amtrak, the Federal government, states, and other rail stakeholders to improve intercity passenger rail service. Section 224 of PRIIA requires Amtrak to undertake studies of reinstating the Pioneer route, and of reinstating or expanding service, or adding stops, on several other routes. Amtrak is to submit these studies to Congress by October 16, 2009. B. Route History When the Pioneer was established in June of 1977, it operated from Salt Lake City and Ogden to Seattle. At Ogden, Amtrak’s San Francisco Zephyr provided connecting service to/from Denver and Chicago for Pioneer route passengers. In 1980‐81, new bi‐ level Superliner equipment was placed in service on the Pioneer, which allowed the train to offer convenient “through car” service to Chicago via the Zephyr and eliminated the need for passengers to physically change trains in Ogden.

  • Denver Railyard History Presentation by Larry Ralston [email protected] May 16, 1868 Denver Pacific Railway and Telegraph
    Denver Railyard History Presentation by Larry Ralston [email protected] May 16, 1868 Denver Pacific Railway and Telegraph Company broke ground for its line going north to meet the Union Pacific in Cheyenne. Milepost 0 was on a line with the alley between Wynkoop and Wazee at 19th Street. The station was located at 21st and Wazee. 1870 First Denver Pacific train arrived from Cheyenne on June 24. Construction commenced July 5 eastward on the Kansas Pacific Railroad. It connected with the west bound construction at Strasburg August 15. Colorado Central Railroad started construction on its line which would connect Denver and Golden. The Kansas Pacific and Colorado Central both rented space from the Denver Pacific station at 21st and Wazee. 1871 Denver and Rio Grande Railroad started construction July 21. Milepost 0 was between two spurs of the Denver Pacific Railroad at 19th and Wynkoop. D&RG constructed its own station at 19th and Wynkoop. 1874 Denver, South Park and Pacific Railroad commenced grading in August. Milepost 0 was at 6th and Larimer with the depot at 6th and Walnut. 1875 Colorado Central moved to a new station at 16th and Delgany. 1879 Union Depot and Railroad Company was formed by the Denver and Rio Grande, the Denver, South Park, and Pacific, the Colorado Central, and the Union Pacific Railroads. Walter Cheesman was the first president. The purpose was to build and operate a combined passenger depot. Land was purchased with boundaries being 16th, Wynkoop, 18th, and Delgany Streets. 1880 John Brisben Walker purchased 500 lots near present day Union Station where he would build Denver’s first amusement park, River Front Park.

  • The Role of Community Land Trusts in Fostering Equitable, Transit-Oriented Development: Case Studies from Atlanta, Denver, and the Twin Cities
    The Role of Community Land Trusts in Fostering Equitable, Transit-Oriented Development: Case Studies from Atlanta, Denver, and the Twin Cities Robert Hickey © 2013 Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Working Paper The findings and conclusions of this Working Paper reflect the views of the author(s) and have not been subject to a detailed review by the staff of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy. Contact the Lincoln Institute with questions or requests for permission to reprint this paper. [email protected] Lincoln Institute Product Code: WP13RH1 Abstract As transit systems expand and deliver improved connectivity, demand for housing within walking distance of transit stops is expected to grow, leading to higher rents and home prices that may price existing and prospective lower income households out of these neighborhoods. This paper examines the potential role of community land trusts (CLTs) to help address these concerns and ensure that transit-oriented development (TOD) is affordable to lower income households over the long term. Using case studies of CLTs engaged in TOD efforts in Atlanta, Denver, and the Twin Cities, this paper explores the opportunities, challenges, and supports that exist for CLTs eyeing future TOD endeavors. The author reaches the following major conclusions: • CLTs are playing an important role in efforts to address affordability concerns near transit in each of the three case study regions studied. Without CLTs, each region lacks adequate mechanisms for ensuring that affordable living options will be in place after its transit system is built out, and for addressing the potential displacement of lower income households in transit neighborhoods.
