Santa Fe's old main line across Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico in 1995-96. There were still a number of through freights running as well as Amtrak's Southwest Chief and the York Canyon coal trains. At the time, semaphores were extant from La Junta-Trinidad and Raton to just north of Albuquerque. There were also a number of crossings with pedestal mounted wig-wag signals. At the south end of Wagon Mound siding, a wig-wag and semaphore stood side by side. Also shown is a brief side trip on the La Junta-Pueblo line, and an SP train which I assume was a detour move as it picked up a Santa Fe leader to work east of La Junta in ATS territory.
