It looks like there's another historic train out there for me to take a ride on. The best thing about it, it is not too far from home to get to (maybe about four hours).
TravelAwaits reported:
The Santa Fe Southern Railroad may have stopped offering rail trips in 2012, but trains are now running again under different ownership – and the trains absolutely must be seen to be believed.
The revival comes thanks to work by novelist and screenwriter George R. R. Martin, along with fellow Santa Fe, New Mexico, entrepreneurs and artists, including author Douglas Preston, National Dance Institute of New Mexico cofounder Catherine Oppenheimer, artist Gary Oakley, and Bill Banowsky, who owns Violet Crown Cinema in the Santa Fe Railyard.
Working together, they formed Sky Railway in 2020. The trains, which provide what’s called “entertainment adventure rail trips,” began running their new routes last month.
The trains run on an 18-mile route between Lamy and Santa Fe, New Mexico.
