Ghost DRG Rollins Pass over the top Std gauge - E. Portal to Rollins Pass

Summary
Rollins Pass between Rollinsville and Winter Park, was the DRG/D&SLR primary route west until the Moffat Tunnel passed under the continental divide instead of over it. Rollins Pass track was laid in 1904 and used until 1936, crossing the divide at 11660 ft. It still has several intact trestles and some not so intact tunnels. A fine example of mountain railroading and great to model.
