Capitan, NM was the epicenter of the Lincoln Wars. Walking by the only street (once named America’s Most Dangerous Street) the remaining structures of this old town, the vibes you get there are strange. The whole town is a great tombstone, reminiscing of old, wild, ruthless times

“...The Lincoln County War was a lawless and ruthless episode in New Mexico history that is best remembered today for having triggered the legend of Billy the Kid. On April 1, 1878, during that bitter business feud, the Kid and other so-called Regulators killed Lincoln County Sheriff William Brady....”, “...An uncomplicated explanation of the Lincoln County War is that it was a feud involving two competing groups, termed ‘rings,’ intent on monopolizing trade, politics and vast stretches of land in New Mexico Territory....” Source:http://www.historynet.com/big-jim-french-and-the-lincoln-county-war.htm

The former Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad (ATSF), now the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF), passes through Lamy. This railroad, usually called just the "Santa Fe," was originally planned to run from Atchison, Kansas, on the Missouri River, to Santa Fe, the capital city of New Mexico, and then points west. However, as the tracks progressed west into New Mexico, the civil engineers in charge realized that the hills surrounding Santa Fe made this impractical. Hence, they built the railway line though Lamy, instead. Later on, a spur line was built from Lamy to Santa Fe, bringing the railroad to Santa Fe at last. In 1896
