The railroad reached Durango in 1881, with a branch built north to Silverton by 1882. This was followed by a standard gauge railway south to Farmington, New Mexico in 1902, which was converted to gauge in 1923.

Two narrow gauge segments survive as steam railroads, the Antonito–Chama line as the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad and Durango–Silverton as the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
