Ghost Town and Calico Railway
The Ghost Town & Calico Railroad is a narrow gauge〔(Steamlocomotive.info )〕 heritage railroad within Knott's Berry Farm, a theme park in Buena Park, California.〔Nygaard, Norman, ''Walter Knott: Twentieth Century Pioneer'', Zondervan Publishing House, Grand Rapids, MI, 1965, pp. 97–99.〕〔Merritt, Christopher, and Lynxwiler, J. Eric, ''Knott's Preserved'', Angel City Press, Santa Monica, CA, 2010, pp. 77–82, 94.〕〔Mello, Michael, "Sixty years later, Knott's train still puffing", ''Orange County Register'', Jan. 6, 2012 (http://ocresort.ocregister.com/2012/01/06/sixty-years-later-knotts-train-still-puffing/106756/).〕
==Origin==
Walter Knott began acquiring the authentic vintage equipment in 1951 and work began to grade and lay narrow gauge track for a grand circle rail route for recently acquired rolling stock with service starting that November.〔Alan M. Cranston, "Your Ticket for the Ghost Town Train Robbery", ''Live Steam Magazine'', Mar.–Apr. (1954): 13.〕〔Salts, Christiane Victoria, ''Cordelia Knott: Pioneering Business Woman'', The Literature Connection, Buena Park, CA, 2009, pp. 52–3.〕〔Merritt, Christopher, and Lynxwiler, J. Eric, ''Knott's Preserved'', Angel City Press, Santa Monica, CA, 2010, pp. 77–82, 94.〕〔Mello, Michael, "Golden spike pounded into Knott's track – again", ''Orange County Register'', Jan. 12, 2012 (http://ocresort.ocregister.com/tag/ghost-town-calico-railroad/).〕Calico was also opened in 1881
The railroad's opening ceremony commenced on January 12, 1952.〔Reprographics Department. ''Ghost Town and Calico Railway''. Knott's Berry Farm, 1953, p. 33.〕〔Jennings, Jay, ''Knott's Berry Farm: The Early Years'', Arcadia Publishing, Charleston, SC, 2009, pp. 54, 79, 88–89, 99.〕〔Merritt, Christopher, and Lynxwiler, J. Eric, ''Knott's Preserved'', Angel City Press, Santa Monica, CA, 2010, pp. 77–82, 94.〕
Unlike many other theme park railroads, the locomotives and most of the other equipment of the Ghost Town & Calico – Knott's Scenic Route have been restored to original paint schemes and appearance on Colorado's Rio Grande Southern Railroad and Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. Also unlike most theme park railroads used as transportation, it travels in a circle and riders disembark at the same place they alight – Calico Depot.
