fire at St. Elmo

Fire has destroyed five historic buildings at the ghost town of St. Elmo, Colorado. It is unclear if any were directly related to the Denver, South Park & Pacific RR. St. Elmo is located at the eastern approach to the long-abandoned Alpine Tunnel.

Some good ghost town photos and links here, including Como roundhouse and Ludlow, Colo., site of Rockefeller's infamous Ludlow Massacre of striking miners.
