Rail the Rockies

ALL ABOARD” the rail adventure of a lifetime!  On 5 different vintage trains, travel back to the Old West and the days of the “Iron Horse” set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. Your journey will take you over high mountain passes, views of the Continental Divide, and through breathtaking gorges, high cliffs and canyons.   Wind your way through national forests, remote natural areas, and unforgettable waterfalls and rivers – many sights only reachable by rail.  Discover why Pike’s Peak was the inspiration for the American anthem,  “America the Beautiful” and see why the Durango-Silverton train is voted #1 train in the U.S. as the 1880s coal-fired, steam-powered locomotive runs 200 feet above the blue-green waters of the Animas River.  Along the way, tour the Railroad Museum in Golden, U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, Air Force Academy, and meander through the Garden of the Gods.  Satisfy sweet-tooth cravings with visits to Enstrom Toffee Factory and a Palisades Peach fruit stand!  This is a “must-do” epic adventure for those seeking a taste of history, beautiful sights, and breathtaking thrills
