Great train ride & museum. Many different options for riding the steam locomotive's. Check there schedule & make reservations. We took the train to Silverton and the views were absolutely stunning. Departed at 8am and arrived in Silverton at noon. Took the bus back which took 1 1/2 hours. Beautiful views along this route. Tour operator was very friendly and informative. Arriving back in Durango we went to the train museum. A must see, with something to interest everyone. For the two of us, the round trip cost a little less than $250. Not bad for a full day adventure. Highly recommend this to everyone!!! As a side note, the altitude at Silverton is 9318'. Those with breathing issues may have a difficult time wandering around.
