The Blues Train features six blues performances on the coal-fired, steam-powered train.

“We’re excited to continue the seven-year legacy of the Blues Train,” said Steve Gumble, founder of the Durango Blues Train. “It’s nice to have a 2nd set of train dates to look forward to. We have another top-notch bill of artists set to play this one-of-a-kind event.”
