The most colorful way of going to the Copper Canyon is using the "ChePe" train, riding one way between Los Mochis, Sinaloa and Chihuahua city, Chihuahua, with a stop someplace like Creel or Divisadero. Creel, nearly at 8,000 feet, may not be getting a commercial flight for some time.
No, but one of these days I am going to take the family on that train ride....I believe it is one of, if not the, last passenger trains in Mexico.
