DENVER — Amtrak’s Winter Park Express will be back on track during the 2016-17 ski season.

The round trips will run on Saturdays and Sundays from Jan. 7 through March 26, with an additional round trip on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Presidents Day, officials said Thursday.

“Winter Park Express trains will enable customers to skip the congestion and stop-and-go ski traffic on I-70 and U.S. 40 while enjoying a comfortable and scenic two hour ride on the historic route through Moffat Tunnel,” officials said in a statement released Thursday.

Adult tickets are as low as $39 each way and go on sale on at 8 a.m. Tuesday through the Amtrak.com/WinterParkExpress website.

The train holds more than 500 passengers and will depart Union Station at 7 a.m. and arrive at the resort at approximately 9 a.m., officials said. The train will depart the resort at 4:30 p.m. and arrive in Denver at 6:40 p.m.

Reservations must be made and tickets purchased by 11:59 p.m. the day before departure.

Two children ages 2-12 can ride for half price with each ticketed adult.

A permanent train platform is being built at the ski resort that will be fully ADA-compliant.
