Colorado Line
This was one of the Missouri Pacific's major lines. It connected St. Louis, Kansas City and Pueblo, Colorado. At Pueblo it connected with other lines that could take the passenger all the way to California. The main station in Greeley County was at Horace. In fact, Horace was a division point on the line with crew changes at this little town just west of the county seat (Tribune). In earlier years, there were other stops in Greeley County. In the later years of passenger service on this line, the train didn't stop at any of these. You can trace this development by looking at timetables for this line for the following dates:
