Train to Silverton

The Animas River

We left camp early to catch the 8am train from Durango to Silverton!  Ruth, Kim, and I rode this very train when we were this age with our grandparents!  I should try to find that picture!!!

Waiting for the train to leave the station....we are excited!



The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad travels 43 miles along the Animas River and opened in 1882.


Kevin was in charge of pictures as managed to get motion sick on the way to the train....it was a long 3 hour train ride to Silverton!!!

My thoughtful hubby captured me feeling sick....pretty sure I was contemplating jumping out the window.  


gorgeous views!!!

The Payne family

The Thome family

The Seppala family

The kiddos in Silverton.  Ruth, Kim, and I have a very similar picture!!!!
