Colorado by Rail  

Quite possibly the most “classic” train tour is this in-depth exploration of the Colorado Rockies riding standard and narrow gauge railways to summits of over 14,000 feet. Teddy Roosevelt described a train journey through Colorado as “the trip that bankrupts the English language”! Our itinerary makes a great circle of the Rockies round-trip from Denver and is timed as a cool escape from the heat of summer.

Hurry! Only 3 rooms are left on this tour.

National Parks of the Southwest

Once again Rail Travel Adventures offers this classic National Parks rail tour as a late September/early October autumn color departure. There is a fantasy of stone and sky in the southwest United States. Between the eye and the horizon lies a panorama of plateaus, buttes and stone monoliths of startling shapes and sizes.

New in 2012 are added national park visits to both Canyonlands and Painted Desert/Petrified Forest National Parks and to historic Santa Fe, New Mexico.
