Just over a century ago, the railroad opened the San Luis Valley to the rest of the world by laying track across its borders. Today, the Rio Grande Scenic Railroad whisks passengers off to remote parts of the San Luis Valley, and those just beyond those borders, still wild and unspoiled by the last 100 years.
