To my knowledge all passenger trains arrived and departed from the existing depot in Durango throughout its six decades of operation . For a few years in the 1930s the RGS maintained a separate terminal with an enginehouse a mile west of Durango . Nevertheless , passenger movements terminated at the depot in downtown Durango .By that time passengers and mail were handled by their roster of "motors" or Galloping Geese .
