Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad

We took the steam train from Durango to Silverton in an open air car.  It was a beautiful sunshiny day in Durango.




3-1/2 hours later in Silverton it was thunder and lightening and the streets flooded.   The shops were loaded with ponchos and sweat shirts so I guess they get a lot of rain up there. On the return trip we donned jackets and wrapped our newly purchased ponchos around us and our cameras.   It was a long 3-1/2 hours.  Durango was dry so we had dinner on the patio of a local hotel.
