No Coal today, thanks! |
| Description: |
Five units bring an eastbound SP freight through the legs of a long-retired coal tower at Deming NM in the summer of 1983. SD40T-2 8525 is followed by a trio of B30-7s and a single GP40-2. The tower dates from the mid-1920s when SP acquired the El Paso & Southwestern RR, whose steam power burned coal instead of oil, five towers being built between El Paso and Tucson on the SP "north" main to service the 'new' power. They all came down by 1998. |

Double Stacks at Alamogordo |
| Description: |
In town for my 40th High School reunion and a chance to duplicate a shot I made 38 years ago. In 1976 it was a single SP SW1500 pulling the Alamo local; in 2014 it's three units running a double stack train westbound towards El Paso. While the "Golden State Line" through here in '76 was an SP route with moderate to light traffic due to ongoing difficulties with the Rock Island connection at Tucumcari, it's now a very busy (up to one train per hour) operation. |
