FREIGHT is situated in the shadow of Mt. Elbert, Colorado's highest fourteener. A passenger train still puffs by the window every afternoon. The gorgeous, fully restored depot holds over 200 people, making it a perfect event venue, conference center or wedding venue in Leadville, Colorado. Along with the barn-like depot, the property includes an elegant courtyard, retrofitted Whisky Lime Lounge in a historic shed, and conference room for workshops and intimate family gatherings.
FREIGHT includes 3500 square feet of atmosphere. The historic timber floors have been caulked and sanded - perfect for a wedding dance floor! The outside courtyard has a stunning view of Mt Massive and is a great space for lawn games, wedding ceremonies or other group activities. We'd love to host your next Leadville wedding, corporate retreat or family reunion!

The Old West was built on the backs of determined individuals experimenting in frontier community, a history of bodies, but usually it's the gunslingers, miners, trappers, and cowboys who are recognized.
The old saying goes: First the miners came to work in the mine.
Then came the ladies who worked on the line.

Historical accounts of these women can be found in fragments of newspapers, obituaries, court cases, and in a handful of library books.
