A Step Back in Time

The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad runs between Durango and Silverton, Colorado. The train is powered by a coal-fired steam locomotive. It has been in continuous operation since 1882, initially carrying silver and gold ore from the San Juan mountains.

The locomotives are from the 1923-1925 era. My favorite thing about riding this train, aside from the spectacular scenery, is riding in the open-air gondola car.
