The Georgetown Loop Railroad was one of Colorados first tourist attractions, completed in 1884. Considered a feat of engineering, the three-track narrow-gauge railway was built to connect the two mining towns of Georgetown and Silver Plume. The designed corkscrew route is 5.1 miles long and slowly climbs 640 feet. Two miles apart in a narrow mountain canyon, the train originally started in Denver, traveled through Clear Creek Canyon (today Highway 6) to Idaho Springs, and ended west of Silver Plume. History of the Georgetown Loop Railroad. Photo: The Georgetown Loop Railroad, built between 1870 and 1880, provided access to the area for freight, consumers and passengers. Briefly billed as the Silver Queen of Colorado, Georgetown won the title just months before the Silver Rush hit Leadville. Financier Jay Gould, determined to reach Leadville, financed the extension of the line. Conceived by UP chief designer Jacob Blickensderfer, the railroad had to travel through a narrow valley to reduce the grade from more than 6% to 3% to make loops, horseshoe bends and curves. With four bridges over Clear Creek, the Georgetown Loop Railroad became a popular tourist destination from the 1880s to the early 20th century, especially since it only cost $3 a ride.
