While visiting Colorado in September, my husband surprised me with tickets to ride the scenic Silverton/Durango train. If you enjoy trains and nature, this is a must on your list of things to do.

You can choose to ride the train one way or round-trip. We chose the round-trip tickets. I recommend buying tickets to sit inside because the train goes rain or shine and the day we went there were some big thunderstorms. You can still get up and walk to the outdoor cars. My husband spent half the ride back in one of the open air cars. I sat in my seat, opened my window, and took a ton of photos and videos. If you do what I did, be safe. There are some VERY close rocks, etc. and you could seriously injure yourself or even die, if you aren’t paying attention and you stick your head out the window.

Below, please find some videos and photos of the trip below.
