August on the Durango and Silverton Railroad means Railfest, a special time in late summer that features historic railroad equipment like the Galloping Goose and the Eureka and Palisade steam locomotive #4, circa 1875. This historic equipment is combined with the Durango and Silverton's regular trains that travel the scenic Animas River Canyon to Silverton. Historians, musicians, and artists present their work and tours of the facilities are included. Enjoy the beauty of the San Juan mountains while riding and photographing this authentic narrow gauge railroad.
