Granby Station
Granby station is a train station in Granby, Colorado. It is served by Amtrak's California Zephyr, which runs once daily between Chicago and Emeryville, California, in the San Francisco Bay Area. Despite its antiquated appearance and structure (the station is made of wood), the station was built in 1987.
Granby is proposed as a station to use for access of the Rocky Mountain National Park by train. However, while the train ride (from the Denver side) provides impressive views, the station itself lies 16 miles (26 km) from the park, without public transportation connections.
