Silverton, Colorado, Steam Engine Locomotive arrives with guest from Durango, Colorado

While camping in Ouray Colorado we did a day trip across the Million Dollar Highway to the town of Silverton Colorado.
In this video we will be taking you to Silverton, Colorado an Old Wild West Mining Town, population 629 in 2013. Silverton is one of the highest towns in the United States, at 9,318 feet (2,836 m) above sea level. ( Silver by the Ton ) Silverton supposedly got it’s name from hauling Tons of Silver from the mines around it.
First you will see the Old Narrow Gauge Railroad, Steam Engine arriving with guest from Durango, Colorado.
Then we will take you inside the Old Jail which is a museum now. I love visiting Old Jails and Prisons but there kind of Creepy to me. Message me and let me know if you feel the same.
Then we will take you on one of the best underground mining tours, which is now a Museum that you have ever seen. Two thumbs up for the town of Silverton and everyone else involved for doing such a great job at preserving the History.
