I've only made use of it once, taking the train in from Santa Fe, so I can't tell you much about it.

In ABQ you'd want the car. If you took the train from there to Santa Fe, you can walk to the Plaza area from the train station, although again with a three-year old that's not necessarily the best plan of action.

Since you're driving in anyway, just drive in each city to whatever places you want to visit. Do have a lot of fun while here!
