[quote user="SSW9389"] <p>Dang you're right, Tombstone is in Southeastern Arizona near the border. I thought all that track down that way was Espee. </p><p> </p><p>[quote user="greyhounds"][quote user="SSW9389"] </p><p>And coal from the New Mexico mines, and lumber from Northern Arizona, and all those immigrant cars bringing new settlers to the lands of a land grant railroad or further west to California, and fruit and vegetables from California. </p><p>FYI Santa Fe(Now BNSF) goes down to Deming, NM, on I-10 to tap copper mines down that way. I don't remember where the tracks end but if you go down I-10 across Southern NM you will cross under the tracks to I think the Phelps Dodge pit.</p><p>Rgds IGN </p><p>The OK Corral was in Tucson, Santa Fe didn't go there. </p><p>Circle-Cross: The circle of life and the Cross of Christianity, there is a herald for you. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>I thought it happened in Tombstone, AZ. Where is Tombstone, AZ? </p><p>[/quote][/quote]</p><p>Santa Fe goes south from Belen, NM / Albuquerque, NM to El Paso. There is a Branch off of this line that goes SW to Deming, NM(I think) From there there is a rail line that cross over I-10 to the Phelps Dodge Pit.</p><p>Rgds IGN</p>
