Immersive 360 VR Tour | Art Direction | Photography | Video Production

The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad was established in 1882 to transport precious metals from the San Juan Mountains. Today, it operates as a historic scenic route, showcasing Colorado’s breathtaking landscape through its narrow-gauge tracks. The steam locomotives, which date back over a century, are a testament to the remarkable engineering feats of that era.

The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum is home to a vast collection of antique trains and historical artifacts, providing insight into the railroad’s crucial role in regional development and the evolution of railway technology. The museum celebrates the pioneering spirit of the American West and embodies the rich history of railroading.

During the pandemic, we created an interactive 360 Virtual Reality tour, allowing visitors to explore the museum and railroad from anywhere in the world from their computer. Hotspots throughout the tour activate- photos of historical artifacts, audio of steam locomotives, informative videos, and links to articles. The tour provides an immersive, entertaining and educational experience for all ages.
