Jansen Intermediates
Shooting Raton Pass (properly) is not for the faint-hearted, but the classic Santa Fe signals and infrastructure surrounded by gorgeous landscapes was not to be passed up. Aside from Amtrak’s modern passenger equipment, Raton is truly a trip back in time.
To kick off our second day, Amtrak’s Southwest Chief, train No. 3, throttles up passing the intermediate signals at Jansen shortly after departing the station at Trinidad, CO. Fresh snow from the night before and clear morning skies was a real treat.
