Thereβs always something peaceful about watching the Colorado landscape roll past, receding into the distance as the train travels ever onward.

Not only are many Montana counties supporting the effort, but transportation leaders in adjoining states have also been signing on to show support, turning what had been a Montana-based drive into a much larger initiative.

But just as importantly, the new request from the Big Sky Passenger Rail Authority doesn't just cover Montana, but the entire "Route of the Hiawatha" between Chicago and Seattle. And there's some feeling that could increase the chances of the study receiving federal funding.

Efforts to make it possible for you to travel by train across Montana's "Southern Route" are taking a big step forward this week, with the request for the federal government to launch a rail corridor study. @Newstalk_KGVO @dennisbragg

The Eisenhower Tunnel turned 50 years old this year. An incredible feat of engineering, the tunnel became the connecting point between the Front Range and the West Slope, allowing commerce and tourism to thrive.

The funding model used will mean that the costs of the desperately needed infrastructure will be repaid back to taxpayers in under a decade. Governor Polis clandestantly promised hyperloop within in next 50 years too.

Colorado railroads are not only open for rides during warm weather months, but several offer special winter excursions. This opens the door to spectacular mountain scenery, fine dining, kid-friendly and holiday-themed experiences, and even the ski slopes. All aboard!

Is it that it's hard to make connections with people (inside and outside) when you can't see out the windows of the bus?

I dug the Denver Planning Commission's 1932 "study for mass transportation" out of a box at @denverlibrary this week for no particular reason.
Here are some highlights from the study's introduction:

Is $19k in rebates to buy an EV really the best use of taxpayer money to reduce GHG emissions? The same could pay for a free RTD eco-pass for 18 years. β at Denver, CO

NEW: The state of Colorado will launch a cash-for-clunkers-esque trade-in program to boost the number of EVs on the road.
Tentative plan is for instant rebates of up to $6K. Income limit of 80% AMI.
