Saw this and thought I would share it. I did the Grand Canyon Railway trip and it is definitely worth it.

If you live here in the Eastern US there are several steam excursions in West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania that are excellent.

the XYL & I did the GC Railway trip a few years back.....they did not have the steam engine running at
that time, but it was still worth it....

here in New Mexico we have the Cumbres & Toltec Railway going between Chama NM & Antonito, CO

We have a train called "La Bestia" (The Beast) that can take you on a cross-country trip, from the Guatemala border all the way to the U.S.! :)

There is a tourist train that travels the short distance between Guadalajara and Tequila, to tour the tequila factories and agave plantations. But, one train trip that I want to take (one of these days) is a tour of Copper Canyon, in the state of Chihuahua. Copper Canyon is Mexico's version of the Grand Canyon.

"...from the Guatemala border all the way to the U.S.!"
There is something to be said about that train, but you won't like it. There's something to be said about India too; "Sign with Geico and ride with Gekko where safety is our most important asset."
