A view from the coaches of the dark side of the train, showing the river and the rocks that form the canyon. I think we had stopped here to pick up some hikers. |

Along the river |
| Description: |
The DSNG runs on a former Rio Grande narrow gauge track built along the Animas River. Some parts of it are quite rugged, with deep canyons. There are a few places where the gorge is not so deep, and the river is a lot calmer. We roll along one of them here, with a good view from the train. |
