Trains
Colorado’s train tours and rides combine three of the best aspects of vacationing here — history, scenic landscapes and plenty of fun for the whole family. Some Colorado train rides and tours traverse still-wild terrain that can’t easily be experienced any other way.
Colorado’s historic railroads each have a different history and mystique. Restored and expertly maintained tracks and trains, and the beauty they provide access to, will bring you to your camera as your eyes open at the narrow ledges they wind around and the view of the dangerous drops to the deep canyons below.
Riding these railroads gives you many options to choose from. Prepare to make some tough decisions when choosing your rides:
- The jaw dropping run toward Pikes Peak on the Pikes Peak Cog Railway or the unbelievable heights of the Devil’s Gate High Bridge on the Georgetown Loop?
- The route alongside the Arkansas River on the Royal Gorge Route Road or the Animas River on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad?
- The hairpin turns along the Continental Divide of the Leadville, Colorado & Southern Railroad or the panoramic Sangre de Cristo Mountain views on the Rio Grande Scenic Railroad?
- The ruins of historic mining camps on the Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge or the essentially unchanged 1880s Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad?
Nearly all of these Colorado train tours and rides offer seasonal trips, like winter Polar Express excursions and fall-color or spring-wildflower rides, as well as gourmet lunch rides, wine-and-dinner trains and murder-mystery events.
