Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, Chama, NM
http://www.cumbresandtoltec.com
One of the two best steam train rides in the country! Take either the roundtrip ride from Chama or the one-way trip from Chama. Both of these rides take you past the best scenery this railroad has to offer. If you would like to be a part of preserving this railroad, you can join the Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad at http://www.cumbrestoltec.org.
