Verde Canyon Railroad

Verde Canyon Railroad

Bent River Machine’s building is located behind Verde Canyon Railroad. If you are looking for a relaxing trip through beautiful countryside, take the train. It winds up the banks of the Verde River past Indian ruins, bald eagle nests, canyons and cliffs hovering over the blue, rippling water of the Verde River. Here is the Bent River Crew on top of a Verde Canyon Railroad engine.
