    Haven’t rode that particular train but have rode some similar. One in Santa Fe, New Mexico and Coloorado has I believe 4 different trains in different parts of the state. One in Canyon City at the Royal Gorge, One in Durango to Silverton, one in Antino to Chamma, New Mexico, one in Cripple Creek, all are pretty cool.

    We have one here that is called the MT Hood Railroad, goes up through the national forest. They had a Thomas the train setup on it last June so I took my grandson with me on it. He couldn't get enough and didn't want to get off after the ride. It was fun.

    Cowboy,
    yes that is the train that goes from Antonito, Colorado down in to New Mexico. It has been a couple of years but the last time I was over that way it was still running.
