Seeing that train above reminds me of my Grandfather. He worked for the Burlington Railway but it traveled all the way to Santa Fe. When I was a little kid, he used to tell us all kinds of stories about life on the railroad.
We have friends who just recently returned from house-sitting in Santa Fe for several weeks and a fried of theirs from Albuquerque road the train to visit them in Santa Fe. There must be a passenger train from Albuquerque to Santa Fe.
Your trains look so different from our machines here, even the oldies.
ReplyDeletethat passenger one is very cool!

ReplyDeleteStill with their classic lines.
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to see these old trains.
ReplyDeleteYou need to ride the Railrunner. It's a nice ride to ABQ.
ReplyDeleteThat passenger car looks quite appealing.

ReplyDeleteYes, there is, Dave, and it's wonderfully convenient. I'll post a photo of the rail runner for you to see very soon!
DeleteThe Vista Dome car would be a great way to have rode on the scenic route.
ReplyDeleteI guess we don't have a lot of new trains. Word is that they are going to put in fast trains from Dallas to Houston. Cant wait!
ReplyDeleteAnd, of course, they must say "Santa Fe!"
ReplyDeleteI like the bright yellow of the Santa Fe Southern Railway engine.
