The Amphitheatre of Mérida (Spanish: Anfiteatro de Mérida) is a ruined Roman amphitheatre situated in the Roman colony of Emerita Augusta, present-day Mérida, in Spain.
The amphitheatre itself was completed in 8 BC.
It is part of the Archaeological Ensemble of Mérida, which is one of the largest and most extensive archaeological sites in Spain. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993.

Even with a bad traction motor on the lead engine, these four cowls have no problem bringing the seven-car Wayfreight and a loaded Spiritwood coal trainover the hill at Merida. What a sight and sound to see these old Canadian motors hauling tonnage across the Northern Plains!
A four unit lash of cowls including the DMVW 5439, 5501, 5500, and 5408 climb through the Merida loops with an 18 car wayfreight for Bismarck.
This train is paltry when compared to the monster 80 car train received from the CP in Max (see the earlier post). But this is pretty typical of the Missouri Valley Subdivision operations. Much of the traffic received in Max is terminated at the energy park near Coal Creek Junction.
With all things considered, we were lucky with this train at the loops. Included with the 7 loaded fly-ash cars, 1 load of dry wall, and 3 mty scrap cars were 7 re-routed mty hoppers bringing up the rear. Not only did this provide just enough train to wrap around itself, but these would also end up going to Napoleon along with the rear two motors. Two days later we would find this train making its way towards Hankinson for delivery to the CP.
The DMVW Spiritwood coal train/Wayfreight makes its way onto the horseshoe curve at Merida behind four cowls, two SD50Fs and two SD60Fs. Within a few minutes, the train will reemerge on the track in the foreground. The smokestacks of the Coal Creek Station, which I visited earlier that morning, are visible in the distance.
