Raton Pass

For qstation—who had a wonderful shot of this same location on a post recently. This cannot compare to a 2-10-2 steam engine helping three Alco PAs and fifteen car train over the pass, but it’s the best I could do here sixty-eight years later...

This is a westbound Amtrak Southwest Chief near the summit of Raton Pass. I believe these images were taken right at Uncle Dick Wootton’s Ranch—the man who owned the strategic piece of land when the ATSF first came through here in 1878; the railroad supplanted the wagon road that Uncle Dick had built.

Two images by Richard Koenig; taken October 29th 2018.

@qstation has put me in the mood for some Santa Fe and BNSF action tonight!

#QStation in Australia only wanted to be useful and jeep those sick safe. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough medicine and many died within her. So she’s one more of the #human #hauntedhouses of the world. #characterdesign #commissionsopen https://www.instagram.com/p/B_WEaXNB7c6/?igshid=sgz31saxdllk

We stayed our last 2 nights at Q station in Manley Australia An historical landmark with Aussie history, sights and amazing food. We might not have slept so well, but enjoyed our stay immensely Thanks or the stay❤ compliments of our new son-in-law @jaredsinsti (FYI this is where they used to quarantine all immigrants coming into Australia to make sure they were healthy before being allowed into the country). At least 500 foreigners died here and some of their spirits never left, including children. We missed closing time for the museum, and we didn't take the lantern guided ghost tour, but we walked the property and made our own tour, including the hospital, the acid shower house and some of the highly haunted buildings (side note: Kate had no idea they were putting us up in a haunted house and was mortified when she found out) #ghosthunters #ghostadventures #qstation #quarentinestation #manleybeach #qstationghosttours #australlianwedding
