Came to Durango for the holidays and we decided to go on a train ride. The train ride was awesome, I really enjoyed the snow covering the landscape and taking in the cool air. There is so much to see during the ride. I wanted to do the Polar Express but decided I would rather enjoy seeing the landscape, because Polar Express is done @ night and you cannot enjoy so much. I do plan to do the Polar Express perhaps next year to see what that is about. They offered food and drinks. The drinks were pretty good. We decided to pack our own lunch. We were not able to go all the way to Silverton because of the weather but we were taken half way I believe and it was still really beautiful. They had a lit fireplace under a huge gazebo which kept us really warm and we were able to enjoy our lunch and walk around in the snow. I would like to take the train again and hopefully weather will be good all the way to Silverton. I do recommend, the ride is beautiful. The museum is pretty cool also. Stop in and have a look.
