All aboard! Do you have an affinity for trains and/or want to experience nostalgia for your childhood? The best way to do so is to - of course - come aboard one of Colorado's scenic train rides. Not sure which to check out? Why not embark upon some of the best train excursions in Colorado - all of which have also been named among the best train rides in the country?

Luckily for those of us who just really, really love trains for some reason, three of the best train rides in America are located right here in Colorado!

Without a doubt, the best ride in America is the gorgeous Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad.

Noted by our friends at USAToday as, "One of the most authentic steam-operated railroads in existence, the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad runs for 64 miles between Chama, New Mexico and Antonito, Colorado, passing through the San Juan Mountains and the scenic Conejos Valley along the way."

In addition to the fabulous Cumbres & Toltec, there are also the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad and the Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway - all of which are worthy of an adventure (or ten).

What are some other scenic train rides in the United States that tend to make the "best of" lists?

The Best Scenic Train Rides in America, per USAToday, also includes the Colebrookdale Railroad in Pennsylvania, Roaring Camp Railroads in California, and White Pass & Yukon Route Railway, pictured above.

The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, which was founded in 1880, can be booked via their official website, or by calling (888) 286-2737.

Riding the rails since 1879, the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad is open year-round and can be booked via their official website or by calling (877) 872-4607.
