Pros
The views were Amazing! We saw so many different parts of Colorado that we'd never seen before.
Cons
Send an update when the train is late. The train was almost 2 hours delayed - it would have been nice to get an alert that it was running behind.
Tips
The food is limited and not the best quality on the train - we brought our own breakfast / lunch and so glad that we did. It was better than any option they provided to us.

Pros
Polite and friendly staff. Kept my husband and I seated together.
Cons
The garbage/ sink in observatory was stinky. One of the cars was seriously gag worthy- smelled like several dirty diapers.
Tips
Don't plan on anything on the other end of your trip. You will more than likely be late
