      Great ride for train buffs

      LeroyEvan_C, Apr 2026
      I really enjoyed this trip, probably because I love trains of all kinds. This is an out and back trip from Santa Fe to 2 miles this side of Lemy. (I asked the attendant why the train didn’t go all the way to Lemy. She said it is a steep incline and causes a lot of ware on the old brakes and is hard for the engine to push it back up the hill. ) The track is the original spur from Lemy to Santa Fe on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. When they built the railroad the main line bypassed Santa Fe because of the hilly terrain and went straight to Albuquerque even though Albuquerque was a very small town then and Santa Fe was the main town. They have 100 year old coaches which are still very comfortable and two flat cars where you can stand and watch the terrain on all sides. I spent most of the trip there. It’s only about 18 mile trip one way and the train tends to go quite slowly, particularly over the multiple small bridges that cross arroyos. I like New Mexico scenery so it is interesting to me. There are 3 coach cars and 1 first class vintage parlor car. Each has their own live musician. I really liked ours. He played blues on an amplified acoustic guitar. Wasn’t to fond of one of the other musicians. There is a toilet in each car and a bar in each car. There serve 1 glass of complimentary champagne but if you want something else there is a charge. All the staff were really nice. Although it is expensive for a short train trip, I feel like I’m contributing to a good cause to keep the historic tracks and route alive.

      Great time!

      This was a wonderful experience. Starting at the train yard located very close to the downtown area. There are restaurant and coffee if you want to eat something before the train. We were upgraded to the wine car in an old train car that was restored really well. The views were amazing and the dancing performance was incredible.
