Ascending Pikes Peak- Cog Railway, Colorado Springs, Colorado -1906 Antique Postcard. The cog railway has been operating since 1891, and has been owned by the Broadmoor since 1925. “Being able to stow cargo under deck is definitely one of the biggest benefits of our RoRo vessels and ensures quality and safety for the customer,” says Mead. Families can once again travel to the top of Pikes Peak in style, following a major construction project of the Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway. “From pre-carriage to point of loading and on-carriage from point of discharge, we have excellent knowledge of handling trains and work closely with our technical and operations teams to ensure safe loading,” he says.ĭelivered on wooden stanchions, each train was safely loaded onto standard 40’ and 62’ roll trailers and wheeled onto the vessel where they were stowed under deck to protect against the elements for the duration of the sea voyage. Damage-free delivery of such costly and sensitive cargo is clearly a top priority for customers, which is why efficient and high-quality handling is crucial, especially during the discharge from barge onto our roll trailers, explains Mead. The products were transported from the Stadler factory in Switzerland to our terminal in the Port of Zeebrugge by barge, before being loaded onboard our RoRo vessels for the final leg of their journey to the US.
