The layout is composed of two railroads. One is the standard gauge Colorado Western the other is the narrow gauge Aspen Junction. The CW runs on old Colorado Midland track from Leadville to Basalt with a spur at Thomasville up to a logging camp. Basalt has a dual gauge yard servicing both roads. The AJ leaves from Basalt and heads uphill to the mining district where it services seven mines.
