Monument in memory of 20 school children who died when their school bus was hit buy a passenger train on December 14th 1961.
I dropped these coordinates to maps so people can find it. It's easy to miss. You can see how WCR 52 was rerouted following the tragedy. Go to the terrain view on maps and you can see it plainly. Not a train travels the tracks anymore and the grade is falling into disrepair. The BN route out of Denver, 30 miles South, replaced it's use when the two combined operations. It's a quiet peaceful place. Visit if you can. God bless the family's that endured life without their children afterwards.
