Remarks & Notes

The butte for which the small town of Wagon Mound is named after provides scenic backdrop for the eastbound Southwest Chief, which is about to split some of the few remaining semaphore signals anywhere on a Class 1 in the US. These signals date back to another era of railroading and are not long for this world in an age of modernization.

You've heard of the Wild West, but nothing like this.

The GE Genesis series are well known for being Amtrak's locomotive. With confirmation of retirement from Amtrak themselves, their time is limited. Now is your chance to catch them before the chargers arrive!
