Railroads

If usable tracks, engines and cars are what you seek, look to the dramatic landscape of Montana. Private railroads chug over trestles, through tunnels, across badlands and along mountain ranges. When these trains roll down the track, they take you not just through pristine valleys and tidy little towns, but into the railyards and back doors of gritty urban centers.
