Most/all of them are nice. Really close is the Colorado Railroad Museum, which had short (15 minute) rides behind a steam train. Georgetown Loop is a bit longer and very nice. Royal Gorge had nice dinner trains
If you are looking for longer rides, Amtrak to Glenwood, Durango/Silverton and Cumbres/Toltec are all stunning.
Does that one go up into the mountains? My inlaws are wanting to ride that one next week but we're over budget this month.
It goes through this canyon:
It's not high up in the mountains, but it's definitely "mountain-y"
If you posted a link, I’m not seeing anything. No worries! I can find the route on Google.
