There is one historic disaster that happened in Durango, Colorado on June 25, 1987. An 18 wheeler truck slammed into an old locomotive with a Durango-Silverton train.
A stock Railroad train of the Denver & Rio Grand RR co. derailed while going through the Unaweep Canyon (the Royal Gorge area of Colorado) in 1920. Not sure of the month but I believe either March or May.m My Great Uncle Glen Nelson Clute (he was the fireman) was killed along with the Train's engineer and brakeman
