Durango Travel Forum

We are going to be snowbirds this winter and will be passing through Durango sometime in early January. We love trains, and see that the train runs a trip Wed. - Saturday to Cascade Canyon and back. If you have any information about this, I would like to know if this is a nice winter trip, and whether they use the diesel or steam engine. Also would I have to make reservations well in advance for January, as we do not usually travel on a set schedule.

I have already visited their web site, but their information on the winter trip isn't very informative, nor do they say if during this off season period that one must reserve well in advance. We aren't sure when we will be heading out, so would probably be wanting to reserve only a week or two ahead. Your photo, looks inviting on your web page. Thanks.
