Silverton Train Hand Carved Window Historical Inspiration

The Denver & Rio Grande Railway arrived in Durango on August 5, 1881 and construction on the line to Silverton began in the fall of the same year. By July of 1882 the tracks to Silverton were completed and the train began transporting both freight and passengers. The line was originally constructed to haul silver and gold ore from the San Juan Mountains, but passengers soon realized that it was the view that was truly precious. The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad will have been in continuous operation for 127 years in 2008.
