WOW ! I have not see a round house since I was a small child.I am now 68 ; may it live on.

Hi Linda,

I'm glad you got to see the roundhouse in pictures, if not the real thing. Yes, roundhouses are few and far between, but this one is loved by volunteers and I think will be around a long time!

I have driven by that a million times and never knew what it was. Very cool!

Now next time you have a reason to stop!

The next Boreas Pass Railroad Day is August 17th, 2019. Open to the public, lots of events in Como & on Boreas Pass along with the opportunity to ride the steam train. On Facebook, follow the Como Civic Association.

Thanks for the update. I hope that many people will participate in this great experience!

In August 2019 (typically 3rd weekend) see the Roundhouse, restored depot & operating steam loco in action. https://www.facebook.com/ComoParkCounty/

Very nice! Thank you for the update.

Reading book entitled “Goin Railroading” about engineer living in Como in late 1800’s and his experience as engineer on the DSP&P.

Sounds like a great book David. I love driving by Como and thinking about its unique history.
