takes you on a 20-mile journey through 100

years of history. FP7 locomotives, two of only

10 remaining in North America, are the muscle

that pulls the renovated consist of cars.

Soothing music is an integral part of the trip as

you make your way through Arizona’s longest-

running nature show … railroad style.

Sandwiched between two protected sanctuaries,

the Coconino National Forest and the

rare ribbon where dramatic high desert meets a

precious riparian area. Each car has panoramic

windows and living room-style seating with

love seats and bistro-style chairs and tables.
