[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 1419423, member: 2550"] I've ridden it about 200 times....no really. Rode it as a kid and as an adult. I have property not to far from Durango so thats part of the reason. From what I can remember....if its in peak tourtist season, it might be crowded. Fun ride, take a camera or video camera. I have seen the train stop along the way toward Silverton, to let hikers off. *** I have also had it snow, for at least 15-20 minutes in the latter part of July to the first of August. Meaning, if its not crowded, ride in the last car.....open air car. The roof was like a cage, and the wind blew through your hair. The bad part is if it rains or snows. The enclosed cars seats might be full and you'll have to stand in the isle. Other than that, I haven't ridden it in 10 years, so if its changed much I can't help. I did as a kid, pick up a few pieces or chunks of coal and keep them while waiting for the train. Have fun!!! Cohiba [/QUOTE]
