Arrived
Title:  Arrived
Description:  I was visiting a friend who lives in Belen, and we had a chance to get out for a bit on Sunday the 17th, unfortunately in cruddy weather, which seems to folllow me everywhere. We headed over to the station to see if anything was up. It was, this train from Albuquerque was just coming in.

Freight action too
Title:  Freight action too
Description:  I was a little too slow to catch the power, but the station here is ideal for watching not only Railrunner trains, but BNSF on the Transcon in the morning hours. That will be the focus of a return trip.
