Description
Pink appears to be the color for Silverton, Colorado's Main Street and it certainly catches the eye... Silverton is the northern stopping point for the Durango to Silverton Narrow Guage Excursion Train. The railroad was completed as far as Durango in 1881 and on to Silverton by 1882. It hauled both freight and people but after the minerals played out, it became the tourist attraction that it is today. It has been in continuous operation for 131 years and still uses steam engines and rail stock just like the early days. It is truly a magnificent and beautiful ride through the canyon of the Animas River.
