Last April, I took a two-night trip to Durango, Colorado to see Godzilla vs. Kong. Theaters in New Mexico were shut down at the time due to the pandemic (but they re-opened a week after my trip), but the ones in Colorado were open. Durango, Colorado is only a three-hour drive from Jamestown, New Mexico. Convenient! (Avoid driving through Farmington, New Mexico, the traffic is horrendous!)
While in Durango, I didn't ride the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, but I did discover a campground that I liked very much, Aspen Rose RV Park. Across the road from the RV park, the Durango train passes by.

Although I didn't ride the train this trip, I did visit the Durango railroad museum that is at the Durango train station. It had lots of things to see and is well worth a visit. It is a part of the roundhouse building.
