Chama Crossing - Caboose-Whiplash

Bring up the rear in style with `Whiplash`

Our charming caboose-inspired tiny home. Named for the swift and sometimes jerky movements of the historic Cumbres & Toltec train, Whiplash offers anything but a bumpy ride. This delightful retreat combines the quaint appeal of a traditional caboose with contemporary comfort. From its elevated cupola, enjoy sweeping views of the landscape, just as the brakemen and conductors did while keeping watch over their trains on this legendary narrow-gauge railroad.



Enjoy deluxe accommodations with amazing views and sounds of the Cumbres & Toltec Narrow Guage Railroad.

The caboose was lovely, cozy and comfortable. There is a street light on the adjacent corner to the caboose which reflects light into the downstairs bedroom. It’s very bright in the bedroom at night which did affect sleep. A blackout shade perhaps? Otherwise we loved our stay!

July 2025 Two Nights in WHIPLASH

Fantastic! No hassle occupancy, downtown location, directly across from Chama railyards for that authentic whistle-stop experience! We walked the friendly village, ate the absolute best tacos in New Mexico at "My Mom and Dad's Restaurant" then slept in the dreamy silence of starry night skies. The Caboose was everything and MORE! What a COOL experience to stay in a beautiful train car! Everything was First Class for comfort and convenience! But beware: the neighborhood Chihuahua is a total Alley Bully! Wonderful experience! Kudos to our hosts for a great stay!!
