DanielB Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Season 5 Episode 5 has a scene where the protagonists perform a heist on a train to steal methlamine from a tank car. Β The Santa Fe Southern provided the trackage and the train for the scene. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielB Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Further to this - their motive power consists of a single gp7 and a single gp16 - seemingly they might be struggling financially as they suspended passenger rail tours this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stock_2007 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Your not going to lose that in the dark any time soon Β I think short-line owners see the funny side of life, cannot remember the road name but one guy painted a GP9 white with big black spots like a big cow ...or was that black with white spots?

Glorious NSE Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Another scheme Intermountain could do on their newly announced Santa Fe rebuilt geep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supaned Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Based on the prototype , the Intermountain model may as well be unpowered... Β I visited Albuquerque last year and booked to go on the SFSR excursion train , so was less than impressed to find out that it was cancelled. Β Santa Fe itself is a nice town , featuring 2 brewpubs , and on the weekend we visited , there was a Mexican fiesta which was most enjoyable.

JWB Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Here are some Santa Fe Southern shots from 1996, when it was active: And the same 93 out of service at Lamy a few weeks ago: Why don't more guys model combined short line-tourist operations?
