Exterior photograph of the Moffat Station, prior to restoration, located in Denver, Colorado. The 1906 depot served as the Denver terminus of David Moffat's railroad over Rollins Pass. The Denver, Northwestern & Pacific never reached any farther west than Craig, but in doing so it helped to establish an eastern market for the ranches, coal mines, and oil fields of northwestern Colorado. A fire in 1995 destroyed the baggage and freight portion of the building.
