Additionally, our knowledgeable crew will share fascinating insights into the history and operation of the Cumbres & Toltec, enriching your photographic experience.
Preserving History By Way of Railroad Photo Charter
The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is a living museum, preserving the rich history of American railroading.

As you photograph the train chugging up steep grades, crossing high trestles, and winding through lush valleys, you will gain a deeper appreciation for the engineering marvels and human stories that shaped this vital mode of transportation. Our photo run-bys are a great opportunity to capture the essence of the Cumbres & Toltec.
