Summer Season is Here


The 2011 season for the Cumbres & Toltec begins on April 26. The 2011 season is expected to be a huge come-back year for the state-funded railroad. The Lobato Trestle is still under construction and is expected to be ready by opening day. The railroad also completed two rebuilds of locomotives over the winter. Locomotive #488 underwent a complete rebuild, and locomotive #487 underwent yearly work and both locomotives got a fresh coat of paint. The railroad has also been in the process of restoring locomotive #463. The locomotive hasn't seen service in a number of years and is much anticipated to return this season.
