  •  21st Annual Fall Photo Special

    September 25 & 26 and October 2 & 3, 2010

    Pullman green coaches

    NEW FOR 2010! A Pullman-green consist last ran on the D&S line in the 1940s. In 2010 the D&SNG has repainted 3 coaches and 1 RPO (Concession) car to emulate this historic look. For the Fall Photographer Trains, the green consist will be joined by the Silver Vista for the first time since 1949! 

    Join amatuer and professional photographers  as we take the train into the remote wilderness of the San Juan National Forest and drop you off to photograph the train steaming past. Be sure to have plenty of battery power, memory cards or film to capture the unique opportunities not available to passengers on the regularly scheduled trains. These special trains are scheduled for optimal autumn foliage colors!
