Dinosaur Train™
Based on the hit PBS Kids Television series, Jim Henson's Dinosaur Train™ is back for a second year at the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. You will meet Buddy, the loveable and curious T. rex, and celebrate the fascination that children have with dinosaurs and trains!
Your 2 1/2 hour adventure will begin at the historic Durango depot where an authentic steam locomotive will pull your train to the Nature Trackers Adventure Area. Along the way you’ll enjoy music and stories and receive your Nature Trackers Club Guidebook filled with fun and educational activities!
At the Nature Trackers Adventure Area, you'll find fossil dig sites, dinosaur tracking, temporary tattoos, live entertainment and a chance to have your photo taken with Buddy! For your convenience a concessions tent will be available to purchase delicious lunch and snacks. After your 1 1/2 hour fun-filled layover at the adventure area your train will take you back to the Durango depot.
Standard-class seating in the closed coaches or open gondolas include all the amenities above.
Our historic (circa 1880s) Deluxe Coach with reversible "walkover" seats are great for families and in addition to all the standard amenities, you will also receive a special surprise gift!
The Dinosaur Train™ is geared toward preschool children aged 2 - 5 years, but the entire family is sure to have a great time!
