Both of my grandpas were engineers on the Santa Fe RR in the 30's and 40's. As a child in the mid 50's and early 60's we'd ride a train every summer from Texas to Iowa. My mother was a saint as it was a two day trip with 5 kids. God Bless you Mom

Love this one, our old family stomping grounds. Great Uncle use to own the assayers office and generals store when the Silverton mines were in operation. Also use to rent mules....must have had interest in the mines as well, they were awful wealthy. Auntie would come down to shop in Denver for the latest fashions and fads...yep, even back then fashion was on their minds. The Forney museum in Denver was also a great railroad history treasure, so lucky to have gotten to see it. Enjoy your videos, thanks so much, bye from Idaho RVr.

Great video as always Russ! I have the Durango & Silverton RR on my to do list. Nice footage of the engine pulling out onto the "turnaround" (turntable). Yes, it's a hot job in the summer but need to point out that engine no longer runs on coal, but as many have today, been converted to oil. It uses a blower with a nozzle to emit a fine spray of oil. The Fireman on this locomotive just monitors and adjusts fuel flow. Still a hot job nonetheless but at least those guys aren't covered in coal dust anymore. You commented on the high price for the tickets. It's a small railroad and they are not subsidized like Amtrak. They pay high prices for all their supplies, insurance, and federal operating permits. To me it's well worth the price to experience living history. Much better than running in and out of a static display museum!

I first took the Durango and Silverton train in about 1968 as a 14-year-old with my family. We Camped along the river, the Animas. Rode horses up in the mountains. 55 years later, I remember it like it was yesterday. In Sliverton, there was a gunfight put on as an act. It was awesome.

Enjoyed reliving our trip to Durango, twice in 2011. We took the train in June and in October. It’s better seeing the fall colors. Take the train up to Silverton and the bus back to Durango. Many recommended that and it was truly a very enjoyable and memorable experience. Thanks for sharing the town, museum, train, and hot springs.

I had the privilege of visiting Durango a few years back. My brother and I took a road trip from Denver. The RR museum was first class. We took the narrow gauge steam train to Silverton and then back to Durango. Saw Box Canyon falls in Ouray and the Black Canyon. Then on to Glenwood Springs for the hot springs.

Thank you, Russ, for the wonderful video of Durango , Colorado. We took the ride to Silverton round trip May 31,1991. Was a fun experience in an outdoor car. Need to wear some kind of eye protection, due to the blowing cinders. Adult & kids over 12 tickets were $37.15 . Never got to go back. Hubby was a big fan of yours. Sadly, he passed away March 2021. He worked in Durango for a few months back in the 1970's . Enjoy your travels. I'm jealous.

I visited the museum in June 2018 when it was the only part of the railroad in operation. The line to Silverton was closed due to the 416 fire which was caused by a hot ember from one of the coal fired locomotives. These were subsequently converted to oil burners as a result. You can see the oil tanks on the locomotive tenders where the coal used to be located. I had planned to head north to Silverton the next day en route to Grand Junction and Glenwood Springs but traffic was severely restricted on highway 550. I was advised to take state highway 145 north to eventually join 550. This was a very scenic route climbing through Lizard Head Pass. at 10,245' and a candidate for a future journey by yourself. I am looking forward to your next video so I can see what I missed along 550 and in Silverton. Your trip to the hot springs has only served to whet my appetite.

Excellent video! You got some money shots there with the locomotive coming out of the roundhouse onto the turntable! Great timing! And the doubleheader steam locomotives pulling that long train to Silverton up the Animas River Canyon. Silverton is about to get swamped! Oh, and the 9 hours is if you take the train both ways (round trip) to Silverton and back. You lay over in Silverton for several hours for lunch, shopping, sightseeing, etc., before you return. It is a full day, though. If you take the bus up and the train back you have A/C part of the way! Keep making these videos! We look forward to seeing them! Safe travels!

Thanks for the nice tour of the museum, turntable, and train yard. Have you eaten three meals in a restaurant, filled up your van with gasoline, or bought plane tickets or been to Disneyland or Sea-world lately Russ? Everything has gone sky high and a ride on the Durango & Silverton RR is still a great value comparatively. We are having an unseasonably hot dry summer throughout most of the west. Normally this time of year after the monsoons have begun, it’s usually cool in Durango. Most all of the steam locomotives have been converted from coal burners to fuel oil so the fireman no longer has to shovel seven tons of coal a day from Durango to Silverton and back. Thanks again for the great video!

Hey Russ, my wife & I rode the steam train from Durango to Silverton in 1989. Nine hours is the total trip, but you're not on the train that long. You have a long while in Silverton to eat & shop. We still have our pics of that trip. Part of the way up, the train stops on a bridge over the river to flush (guess that's the right word) the steam pipes. We were there in July & it wasn't hot in Durango (needed jackets after sun went down). We camped at Mesa Verde camp grounds outside Durango. We were told to take a light jacket on the train ride because of higher altitude in Silverton. They were right. A clerk in a store there said that if it reached 70 degrees they felt like they were having a heat stroke. We sure are enjoying this season's videos. Thanks for taking us along.

I've wanted to ride that since I was young and for some reason - never made it that way. But I'll admit - me and hot choo-choo rides in the summer with huge crowds no longer agree. Did you folks notice how little the box cars were just before museum? The railroad is 36 inch gauge, (inside rail to rail),. Way smaller compared to regular size choo-choos. People from all over the world come to ride that one. In the heritage railroad world it's a rock star! Everything about it including the spectacular route it travels - unique, (from what I've read at least),. I'm envious of you Russ but I'm sitting out west in 60 deg coastal fog so,....not that envious. Watching it here, better for me at the moment. Cheers! 👍

The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad has a lot of equipment from the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad. My favorite steam locomotive here is Denver & Rio Grande Western 482 (A K-36 class narrow gauge 2-8-2 “Mikado” that was built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1925, along with the rest of the surviving narrow gauge locomotives of the same class here). I have been here back in July 2016 and June 2022.

I've taken that train at least 5 times from 1965 to early 2000's, round trip, one-way, and the off-season shorter run to the Cascade wye. Loved every minute of every trip! Also the whole San Juan Loop many times - Dolores, Telluride, Ouray, Silverton, Durango. The first time it wasn't even fully paved. SW Colorado is my favorite place on earth. I'd have lived there if I could handle the winters! You'll be back, Russ!

We visit Durango often. We’ve stayed a couple of times at an RV campground where the train goes through the park.

I had no idea the railroad museum was free and that big! Thanks for sharing your travels and hard work!

Cool Museum and I love trains. My Dad used to take me down to the rail yards and the Round House where the trains were worked on. The Round turntable as was called when I was a kid didn't turn the trains as fast as what you showed in your video. I am impressed by the detail of the museum holdings. The diesel was nice but the steam was very cool. Remember these stream engines are more than 100 years old so keeping them in running condition must be quite an undertaking. So, I can understand the ticket price. Thanks Russ for the visit and hope to see the fall colors from train, if you get a chance.

I rode on the Durango & Silverton with the steam engine last summer. It was amazing! Even though it was late June, it was a cool day. I rode the train up and back, which was a long day, but views that I missed going up I was able to see going back to Durango. I do think if I did that trip again that I would opt to ride the train up and take the bus back. I didn't get to spend much time in downtown Durango, so I need to do that next time. Looking forward to your Million Dollar Highway video. It is a beautiful drive.

I stumbled on your channel. I liked how you're filming these trips. I feel like I'm sitting in the front seat seeing colorful Colorado. You stopped at small towns and learned their history. I really enjoy it. My daughter moved to Denver two years ago. Now that I have a place to stay and someone to drive me around, I will be spending a lot of time in Colorado. Coming from flat Florida and seeing the mountains out West for the first time, was truly magical. There is something about those mountains.

Rode this train both ways in 1980. Loved Colorado for its train history. Loved the shot of the engine turning around on the turn table. The narrow gage was 3 ft wide, could go around sharper turns. Looks like a lot of changes in 43 years. Silverton is a nice town on the other end of the line. Drove over 550 ,great view. Also visited the Colorado Train Museum . Colorado Springs with the Cog RR is another nice little town

That was beautiful to see the engine, go on a turntable and turn around and go to the opposite way. Where it came from thank you so much that way

Just watching your trip to New Mexico. What a fabulous state. Was expecting desert but not all the trees and greenery. Love the photos from your new camera. Have followed you for a while now. Thanks for the entertaining videos. From North East England UK.
