Answer 2

There is no passenger train service to Las Vegas at present. There was a proposal to provide a high-speed passenger train service from Las Vegas to Los Angeles, but that would mean doubling the single-track line across the desert: President Clinton vetoed the idea because the extra track would disturb the habitat of the Desert Tortoise.
The Californian Zephyr train (Amtrak #5) runs from Denver (where it reverses into the station - this would never be allowed in the UK for safety reasons) to Reno. You could then take an eight hour bus journey to Las Vegas. There is no alternative to Amtrak for your required journey (unless you ride a freight train illegally).

Answer 3

Sadly, there is NO scheduled passenger train travel between Denver and Las Vegas... it was discontinued in 1997. There is plenty of FREIGHT moving thru Vegas, but no passengers.

Perhaps there should be a letter-writing campaign by Vegas-goers to push for a line tween Denver and Los Angeles... multi-class RR travel from those cities to Las Vegas.
