Colorado's New Train: The Colorado Connector

from Aspen News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Colorados new passenger train, the Colorado Connector (CoCo), has been officially named after a public contest. The playful name, which beat out other options, reflects the trains role in connecting the state and easing traffic congestion. The rail line, set to start runs in 2029, will stretch from Fort Collins to Pueblo, partnering with existing tracks that could one day link to New Mexico and Wyoming. Voters near the route may face a sales tax ballot in November to speed up full service by 2032, as the states population is expected to grow by three million in the next thirty years.
