The Lettermans & The D&SNGRR

David Letterman celebrated his son’s birthday here in Durango last Saturday with a ride on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.  They took a private train from Durango to Cascade Canyon which is a partial trip that runs in the fall and winter months.

Six adults and four kids celebrated Harry Letterman’s birthday on the train, who turned 8 on November 3.  Al Harper, owner of the D&SNG train met Letterman and his family and even gave them a tour of the museum and the roundhouse.  “He could not have been nicer,” Harper said. “Very humble. His wife and family are very outgoing. He’s a little more reserved.”  Letterman told a hostess that he loved the train and loved Durango and planned to talk about his trip on his show “Late Night with David Letterman.”

Other celebrities have ridden the train, including one of Letterman’s favorite targets, Oprah Winfrey.
