Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad 2018 Season Highlights

Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad and Museum

Start your summer on the right track

It's the 20th year the Harper family have been caretakers of our railroad, and we're celebrating by encouraging a digital detox for our riders. When you step on board our steam train, take a moment for yourself. Unplug. Relax. Reconnect with nature. Share the moment with loved ones or new friends. Enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Colorado and the thrill of the adventure — even if it's just for a moment.

Lifetime memories are created from beautiful moments. Hop on board and experience them.

RESERVE YOUR EXPERIENCE

We’re the only train in the continental U.S. that that offers accessible wilderness adventures. Passengers love to use our train to access the San Juan National Forest and Weminuche Wilderness for backpacking, day hiking, fishing and other river activities.

SEE ALL ACCESS LOCATIONS

Add an adventure experience to your historic steam train ride: Enjoy a morning 4-wheel drive in the Colorado backcountry, raft with your family on the Animas River for an afternoon, or spend a day gliding between trees in an old growth Ponderosa canopy.
