The Blues Train is an exciting 3.5-hour moving experience of live blues on board the coal-fired, steam-powered train through the breathtaking canyons of the San Juan National Forest. The Blues Train features six live blues performances inside the train coaches with a festive musical atmosphere. Each artist performs in their own vintage coach, while passengers are free to dance their way from coach to coach. The Blues Train follows the same format as years past, with nine historic passenger cars, a steam-engine locomotive, two full bands, four solo/duo acts and three craft beer, cider and wine bars. To cap it off, passengers will take in spectacular sunset views along the "Highline," a world famous section of the railroad, as the train crawls along craggy cliffs high above the Wild Animas River.
The artist lineup for August 17 & 18 features The A.J. Fullerton Band, The Rebekah Meldrum Band, Molly Gene - One Whoaman Band, D.W. Doucet, Cary Morin, and RL Cole. To explore the lineup, click here.
"I'm excited to host this diverse group of artists on the August train" said Steve Gumble, founder of the Durango Blues Train. "These bands present a perfect variety of styles to offer passengers a truly spirited and unique musical journey. Together, they form the perfect recipe for a great time."
