C&TSR News:

This fall, the historic Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is offering a brand-new way to experience Colorado’s night skies. The Dark Sky Train will depart on Sept. 20 and Oct. 3, 2025, carrying passengers along the Colorado/New Mexico border and deep into the San Luis Valley—one of the darkest, quietest places in North America.

The train will stop at Big Horn Wye, a remote location unreachable by road, where guests can step off for 90 minutes of unforgettable stargazing. From the Milky Way stretching overhead to brilliant constellations like Orion and Canis Major, the view is sure to thrill.

Hope you can share the news on this new and rare combination of historic rail travel and dark-sky tourism! More details and tickets here: https://cumbrestoltec.com/special-trips/dark-sky-train/
