Get a front-row view of the Durango and Silverton's scenic line through Colorado's Animas Canyon.

The Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad is one of the most spectacular train rides in the world. Carved into the heart of the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado, this historic narrow gauge branch line traverses a landscape that will literally take your breath away!

We mounted our camera on the front of D&SNG 106, a former White Pass and Yukon DL-535E diesel, giving you the best seat in the house as we travel along the Animas River to Silverton! We have included limited narration telling you interesting facts about the railroad and its history.

Enjoy your ride!

Ever wondered what it was like to ride the rails on the route of the former Rio Grande's Silverton Branch on the Western end of the 4th Division without leaving the comfort of your own house? Well in this program, a special cab ride on one of the former White Pass & Yukon DL-535 diesels which were the final engines constructed by ALCO was made as a camera was attached to the front of the diesel's nose between Durango & Silverton Colorado, covering every inch of the route: the Durango Roundhouse & station area, the Hermosa Water Tower, Elbert Creek Canyon, Rockwood Wye, the Animas River Highline, Tacoma Tank, Cascade Wye, & Downtown Silverton plus other locations along the way that also includes some construction machines clearing a landslide. Some stock footage from another 7Idea show: Today's Durango & Silverton was used. Informative Narration from Camera operator Aaron Bentsein is also included as well.
