Rails with trails includes a map from a reliable source, showing 2 rails with trails in New Mexico. One is the Santa Fe Rail Trail along the Santa Fe Southern Railway, but I cannot identify the other. Based on the relative positions of the dots on that map, the mystery railroad is either somewhere east of Taos, or somewhere west of Albuquerque. Help? Thanks! -- Una Smith ( talk) 20:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
There is a very short description of that track in the WPA Guide to New Mexico. At the time the book was written, about 1940, the line seems to have been in operation. Today, on the parts I've seen, there is a path, 8 to 10 feet wide, but no tracks. Let me know if you want more - if this is what you are after. Einar aka Carptrash ( talk) 05:51, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I would guess that there is not a trail along most/much of the track. Some of it is straight UP on one side and straight DOWN on the other. I could be wrong. (tho please don't tell my wife and kids if I am) eeeeek aka Carptrash ( talk) 00:32, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
I will propose a merger in one week to rail trail. .:DavuMaya:. 22:53, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
