Remarks & Notes 
These days on BNSF's Glorieta and Raton Subdivisions, any locomotive other than a GE P42 is hard to come by, seeing as the only remaining train left to traverse the route is Amtrak's daily Southwest Chief. However, a break in the mold is always accepted, and today was no exception as a rather shoddy BNSF Dash 9 leads train 3, the westbound Chief, faintly reminding the rails and ties beneath it of what it was like to host freight traffic.

Photos showing the railroad pole lines. The pole line used four basic electrical circuits - telegraph, telephone, signaling, and power. Modern technologies of fiber optics, microwave, radio, satellite, and computers have been replacing the pole lines.
