Copper Canyon Schedules are presently tentative
pending completion of final en-
route destination rail car parking
arrangements.
A Copper Canyon Journey by rail is a spectacular trip among towering peaks of Mexica's Sierra
Madre, still inhabited by Atarahumara Indians famed for speed that lets them hunt deer
by running them down on foot. It took over 90 years to build the railroad through 87 tunnels and over 37 bridges
anchored in the rock hundreds of feet below, climbing to 8,000 feet
where the backdrop of the Sierra Madre rises another 5,000 feet. It is a Journey by Rail through awesome grandeur
that is almost
unchanged since the start of time.
Journeys include wonderful dining throughout the day, complimentary beverages of all kinds,
elegant luxury, 24 hour personalized on-board service, and ultimate en-route experiences. At your option,
