COG Railway Locomotive - Manitou Springs, CO - Locomotives on Waymarking.com

A great location to take group pictures to remember your trip to the top of Pikes Peak.

The COG Railway will take you to the top of Pikes Peak. Worth the trip, but remember to bring a jacket (30-40 degrees colder at the peak) and drinking water (to avoid altitude sickness).

Since 1891, the world's highest cog railroad has been chugging tourists up Pikes Peak to its summit of 14,110 feet. The three hour and ten minute trip, which includes 30 minutes on the summit, winds through stands of pine and aspen before ascending above treeline and offering stunning views of Colorado.
