Crossing Abo Arroyo on Bridge 872.2, an eastbound Santa Fe freight traverses rugged Abo Canyon between Sais and Scholle, New Mexico, on June 2, 1995. The train is powered by a colorful trio of locomotives—Santa Fe GE C40-8W No. 844, Santa Fe SF30C No. 9529 (rebuilt GE U36C) and Southern Pacific EMD SD40T-2 No. 8316. That section truck and crew waiting for some substantial track-and-time has its work cut out for them on this busy single-track section of Santa Fe’s main line.
