The event will be run in conjunction with the annual Sherman Hill Model Railroad Show at the events center on Lincolnway. The Union Pacific Steam Shop has graciously agreed to be open  to allow viewing of the roundhouse and Steam Shop. The Car 57 restoration project will be holding an open house in our far west parking lot will be open for viewing as well. A Visit Cheyenne trolley is planned to escort people to and from all of the locations with departures scheduled every 30 minutes. Model train displays, railroad art, and vendors will occupy the Depot lobby.

A new aspect of Depot Days is the inclusion of a railroad art competition with artists competing for prize money and the opportunity for their work to become the foundation of the permanent railroad art exhibit in the Cheyenne Depot Museum.

The Cheyenne Depot Museum will be selling tickets for a Steam Train Excursion on July 24th bringing passengers from Denver to Cheyenne on a one-way trip. Busses will be available to shuttle local residents from Cheyenne to Denver and Denver area residents back south after the arrival in Cheyenne.
