Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad — photo spot in 500 Terrace Ave, Chama, NM 87520, USA
Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad
Score4.9Historic narrow‑gauge steam trains threading high desert mesas, pine forests and mountain passes — great for dynamic transport shots framed against dramatic Colorado Plateau landscapes. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm light and steam backlighting; fall foliage and winter snow add contrast. Depot at 500 Terrace Ave has ample parking and ticketed boarding (reserve trains in advance). Many scenic pullouts along the line; some viewpoints require short hikes. Expect cold winds at altitude; dress warm
