Durango & Silverton - America’s Railroad (2023)

SHOT IN HIGH DEFINITION 4K!!

141 years ago, the mountains of San Juan & La Plata County, Colorado were graced with a 45-mile railroad that stretches from Durango to the mining town of Silverton. Today, that lonesome whistle can still be heard howling through the Animas River Valley. Join us as we take a “trip to yesterday”, with all the sights and sounds that have generated millions of tourist since 1882. This railroad needs no introduction. Enjoy the ride behind America’s Railroad: the historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
