HINSDALE COUNTY, Colo.- At last report, the Goblin Fire in the Weminuche Wilderness has not seen significant growth and is holding at 700 acres.

Smoke has been visible from Durango at times as crews work to secure the fire perimeter.

Authorities have determined those flames were sparked by the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gage Railroad Train.

No percentage of containment will be given for this fire, as much of the terrain is unavailable to fire crews.
