The Durango Blues Train returns on June 3 and 4, two consecutive evenings of live blues aboard the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.

This unique, live music experience takes place on the historic steam train based in Durango, Colorado, with each night featuring two full bands and four solo/duo artists. Musicians perform in their own vintage coach, while passengers are free to sample all the acts by strolling from one rail car to next.

The Durango Blues Train is pleased to announce the 2016 artist lineup. Please welcome musical guests Ben Miller Band, Moreland & Arbuckle, Eagle Eye Williamson, Cary Morin, The Bones of J.R. Jones and Brian Keith Wallen.

Watch the 2016 line-up video here.

“We’re excited to continue the Blues Train in its sixth year aboard the historic railroad.” said Steve Gumble, founder of the Durango Blues Train (and Telluride Blues & Brews). “We have some incredible musicians booked for the 2016 event.”

The trip begins at the historic train depot at 7:00 p.m., when the steam engine fires up and it’s all aboard. En route, passengers get to experience breathtaking canyon views of Colorado’s San Juan National Forest as the train winds onto the “Highline,” a world-famous section of railroad crawling along cliffs high above the Animas River. The train returns to the depot in Durango at approximately 10:20 p.m.

Besides the music, guests get to enjoy beverages, including beer and wine, and light snacks.
