The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad has added some great new train rides
and expanded their popular family rides this season. Gas prices might be up,
but fun is right in your back yard. And thanks to these special train trips
designed to entertain everyone from dear old dad to all the kids, the C&TS
RR is combining fun with unique and affordable family adventures! Each
train celebrates a different theme and opportunity to experience antique
railroading, spectacular scenery and affordable, family adventure all close
to home.
a.. Father’s Day is June 15th, and the C&TSRR has bundled up a great
outing with special discounts for Dad! The C&TSRR is offering a Father’s
Day Special of 10% off the normal ticket price for Dad from June 13-15, when
he is accompanied by at least one family member. Father will also be
presented with a complimentary Father’s Day gift (a collectible C&TS RR pin)

b.. Every Thursday from June 12 to August 14, the “Cinder Bear Express,”
will operate a shorter trip designed especially for children. Everybody
loves Cinder Bear, the train's official mascot. Kids and parents join him
for the four-hour round trip from Chama, New Mexico to Cumbres Pass. The
trip is filled with songs, games, and storytelling and a picnic lunch in the
mountains. Each child goes home with a CB souvenir and special family
memories!
· New this year, from July 6 to August 24, the C&TS RR will offer the
“Sunday Express,” from Chama to Cumbres and return. These Sunday trains
will depart the historic Chama Depot and take train riders on a 4-hour
