Train making its way from Silverton back to Durango. There are some really special scenic parts along the way.

A visit to Durango isn't complete until you ride the Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge rail road!  Spectacular views from the historic train.  Just sit back and enjoy.  For this shot, I went outside on the platform of the last car to get a shot along the whole length of the train.

On our trip on the Durango & Silverton train, we managed to get the last two seats in the first class dining car.  I was impressed with the intricate woodwork of the 1880's vintage coach, particularly the bar, with a view of the river out the window.

Couldn't find the hot tub. Staff was good. Room wasn't special. Shower was to small and shower head wouldn't move far enough to hit correctly. Meatloaf was good at Belle. Old school charm. I stayed at Rm414.

Loved the location and the classiness of the main hotel. Unfortunately, we booked a room in the adjacent "Wing" structure. The room was very nice, but it was a direct outside access room and the temperatures were in the single digits that night so it was extremely cold in the room, even with the ...
