    Selling tickets on board
    Michael W.

    Nice, clean,efficient,punctual, and a good option should it meet your travel needs. You can buy online and save one dollar, or hand a credit card to the attendant who comes by once onboard. Trains have a nice bathroom, (will post a pic). Trains also have free internet, nice chairs, upper and lower lever cars, some tables with ac plugs, space for luggage and bikes at end of car. Announcements are made and you can also watch the video monitor for upcoming stops. Once in Santa Fe show your ticket to the white local van/bus and ride that free. Or just walk around downtown/plaza area. You can ride free from train to Airport in Albuquerque on a shuttle there also. If you buy online you show that when leaving ABQ airport for free also. If you didn't buy online you pay $1 for the shuttle. Trains run right on time! They are very quiet. If you have bags, bikes, or don't want to climb stairs you can sit on the lower level. There is a small mid level too, then the larger upper level where most choose to sit. Its a well run operation, and a special senior rate of $6 all day if you quality. Otherwise $9.00 all day. Or there are one way and other ticket options. It's a well run operation. For years the talked about something like this. They often called it a high speed line. This isn't high speed, probably about the same as driving and it makes a few stops, but no parking, gas, driving hassles. A great way to go.

    Waiting on the Railrunner. (Downtown Station)

    On my most recent trip to visit my family at home in NM I decided to incorporate a trip on the Rail Runner from Albuquerque into Santa Fe. Having just relatively recently moved from ABQ, I couldn't believe in the 2 years I had been here I didn't ride it. I have several former coworkers who use the Rail Runner to commute daily between all the communities served by the Rail Runner. They have a shuttle that will take you from the Airport to the Downtown/Alvarado Transfer Station. This can be very convenient if you time your flight and the buses just right. The trains to Santa Fe mainly run during the peek commute times during the week. Arriving at the airport just after 1pm I was between trains. The next one didn't leave again until just after 4p. The website was easy to use and I had already purchased my ticket online. When 4pm came I made it to the station. The train was clean and spacious . Not much room overhead for baggage (like airplanes) I shoved my carry-on under the seat. I chose a window seat facing west so I could enjoy the scenery. I rode through to the final stop in Santa Fe. Here you have quick walking access to many great restaurants and bars. There is also a shuttle to the plaza and some of the area casinos. Yes, it may take 45 min in a car between Santa Fe and downtown ABQ and the Rail Runner takes closer to 2 hrs, but it is a great leisurely ride and you avoid the rush hour traffic. This is a great addition to any visit to the Land of Enchantment.

    Ask the Community - New Mexico Rail Runner Express

    Does the rail runner go to San Antonio Texas?

    No. The Rail Runner goes from Santa Fe (to the north) to Belen, NM (to the South). The Rail Runner doesn't go beyond these points and stays within New Mexico.

    A day trip to Santa Fe sounded like the perfect idea so we hopped online and purchased our tickets.
