The Wild West Gets Wilder at The Colorado Railroad Museum! July 30 and 31 promises to be a huge, wild weekend indeed. There'll be free steam train rides and possible robberies lurking around every corner! See who's the fastest draw in the West at the High Noon shootout! Meet some of the Old West's most famous and infamous characters, like Buffalo Bill, Big Nose Kate, Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp and many more! Visit the tent city for a step further back in time and see the wonderful displays by the famed 10th Cavalry. Be on yer toes... you never know when a gunfight might break out! Kids get to play old-time games and have their faces painted. Listen for the live music wafting about the park as you mingle with Old West reenactors from all around the West. Living historians will have some mighty interesting stories to impart. Shop from vendors displaying period goods. Meet nationally acclaimed and multi award-winning author Reid Rosenthal. He'll be selling and signing his latest book, "Maps of Fate." Special pricing for those in period outfits. So make sure you ride the rails to the Colorado Railroad Museum for Wild West Days.

Howdy! New stuff coming in all the time for Wild West Days in Golden, Colorado, 30/31 July!! We're happy to announce the Osburn Brothers will be providing live music over the weekend and on Sunday they'll be joined by members of the Colorado Old-time Fiddlers Association. Tent City is expanding. Now it looks like there'll be a blacksmith, leather maker/repair tent, Native Americans, a cowboy camp and faro games joining in! Living historians from several states will have some mighty interesting stories to impart. And there is a good chance
a 48-Hour Film Festival crew will be on site making a movie. And there are a few more irons in the fire. Dress in Old West clothing and get in for $5 instead of $12. All guns will be checked. No live ammo allowed. Monarch Productions will provide .45 blanks. Proof of insurance needed to shoot. Strict gun safety rules enforced. All performers are welcomed to perform during the weekend, but need to be scheduled through Monarch Productions. The railroad museum is projecting up
to 4000 visitors a day - so don't miss out! Any questions shoot us an email. We hope to see y'all July 30/31 at the Colorado Railroad Museum!!!
