The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is known around the world for its spectacular scenery, unique machinery, and historic structures. It is America’s highest & longest coal fired, steam operated, narrow gauge railroad. It’s total distance is 64miles. The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad has four operating coal fired, steam operated, narrow gauge locomotives - #484, 487, 488, and 489 which travels between Chama, NM and Antonito,CO.
