Marcia Car:
The Marcia Car (see interior picture above right) is a private railroad car commissioned in 1906 by David Moffat, a prominent Denver, CO banker who played an important role in America's railroad development. Moffat named the car "Marcia" after his daughter and used it primarily for inspection tours of the Moffat Railroad line and to entertain prospective investors for the project. This car, owned by the Craig Chamber of Commerce, is in pristine condition and is a fantastic example of luxury accommodations.
Tours are available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday by stopping at the Craig Chamber of Commerce & Moffat County Visitor Center, 360 E. Victory Way
