Amtrak #4 on Glorieta Sub
Author: qnyla

I caught a couple snaps of Amtrak #4 today on the BNSF Glorieta Sub.

1. Amtrak #4, the eastbound Southwest Chief, rolls by the Devil's Throne at MP 853 between Waldo and Cerrillos, NM.

2. Amtrak #4 rolls east at Rowe, NM with the first dusting of snow of the season on the Sangre de Cristo Range.

And you just missed the Z. Shown here at Lajunta. I went to Trinidad to see if I could get it in the sunset.

Nice night shot of the Z, i take it BNSF still sends an occasional through freight over the North Line still besides the locals!

Great photos. Too bad you didn't enter them in the wall calendar contest.
