Seperate manitou Incline, from Pikes Peak Railway... not the same, PPR is a business not a free public attraction — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bloody trauma (talk • contribs) 10:48, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

Matt Murdock, editor in chief?
It seems obvious to me, so why is there no mention of how long the line is? Trekphiler 12:30, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Length update in infobox... 8.9 miles. LanceBarber (talk) 09:57, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Title of this page is incorrect
Pikes Peak has no apostrophe within its name - and neither does the railway that climbs it. (In fact, the logo shown on this page makes that clear.) Duncan1800 (talk) 05:39, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * They're either inconsistent or mainly use the apostrophe: File:M&PP 5 at Manitou Springs.jpg, File:PikesPeakTrain.jpg, and the logo on actually uses an apostrophe. In addition, the Interstate Commerce Commission's valuation report uses the apostrophe, which is why I moved it. --NE2 07:03, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Rail gauge
Jane's World Railways, 69/70, lists Manitou and Pike's Peak Railway as being gauge. Peter Horn User talk 21:59, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * So does the ICC valuation report from the 1910s ("The railroad is single track standard gauge and is operated by steam."). --NE2 23:15, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Updates

 * The railway is now back in operation for 2021. The downtime pretty much resulted in major rebuilding with some "upgrades". The ABT system was replaced with a new Strub single rail cog system, new engines, and new railcars. The article can be expanded with new information and more sources, Inspecting the Manitou & Pikes Peak Cog Railway, An engineering feat: Rebuilding the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, and others. --  Otr500 (talk) 15:21, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
