    As of August 16, 2024 the semaphores between Lamy and Albuquerque on the NMDOT portion of the Glorieta Sub have been taken out of service. It's only a matter of time before BNSF removes the ones out east.

      the pricing is actually not too bad if you travel in coach like I did. this exact stretch from La Junta to Albuquerque is roughly $40 per person for an 8-hour trip and going all the way from Chicago to LA is about $145 per person in coach. I used points though, so I actually did this trip pretty much for free. glad you enjoyed!

    That route between La Junta and Albuquerque was sold to the State of New Mexico by BNSF. The purpose was for a commuter rail operation between Belen NM and Sante Fe NM, the Railrunner. Albuquerque lost rail jobs due to industry shutdowns.
    I was a Conductor for BNSF at the time, around 2008, and that move cost a lot of railroading jobs and was the demise of many rail-serviced industries in Albuquerque and North. It affected me due to the high number of senior railroaders bumping into my yards at Belen and Albuquerque.
    The rail is leased for AMTRAK operations, no freights run that route except for various spotting jobs and rail car storage. Coal and grain trains that had used that rail now go through Amarillo. The State of NM had plans to utilize the track for rail service up to Trinidad but never went anywhere North of Sante Fe!
    BNSF has a buy-back agreement should the commuter operations cease.

    Well yeah, the gendarme country protecting the free world is the less developed in transportation and standard of living. It is a usual phenomenon in auto repair, tailoring etc.

    I've watched many train videos from all over the world. The landscapes in this video are depressing. New Mexico isn't a state I'd rush to visit. The video, however, was done quite nicely. It's just the landscape that's not appealing.

    I have just one question: When is the part from Albuquerque to L.A. going to come out?
    🚂🚃🚃

    • @nathanjiang100
      @nathanjiang100  9 месяцев назад

      didn't film from the rear view after Albuquerque. instead, I chilled in the sightseer lounge and treated myself to traditional dining for the last dinner onboard. didn't wanna worry about a my phone falling off the mount or running out of storage or battery. plus as the lighting got dimmer there was more glare unless I would stand there to press my phone against the window, which I can only do for so long at a time.
