Now writing a book centered around Dalhart, Texas covering 1885-1950, Railroads make possible the settlement of this Last Wilderness in the USA. Seeking information, references or stories about train wreck, and robberies on Rock Island from Pratt, KS to Tucumcari, NM and on the Fort Worth and Denver Amarillo to Trinidad, CO. Also the Depot Robbery at French, NM . or any other interesting event in this area. Your help will be very much appreciated. Pictures will be most welcome. Thank You ...Buzz
