Trails and Rails on Amtrak
National Park Service - Bent's Old Fort
Amtrak's Southwest Chief, La Junta, CO
Every weekend from May 2 to September 5, 2009
Trails & Rails is an innovative partnership program between the National Park Service and Amtrak. This program provides rail passengers with educational opportunities that foster an appreciation of a selected region's natural and cultural heritage; it promotes National Park Service areas and provides a value-added service to encourage train ridership. It also renews the long tradition of associating railroads with National Parks.
The Southwest Chief Trails & Rails program operates between La Junta, Colorado and Albuquerque, New Mexico and is based out of Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site.
