A bridge fire at the Raton Pass line forced Amtrak 4 to take BNSF's southern main line through Amarillo, Wellington, and Wichita. Here is #4 passing the Great Plains Transportation Museum on the afternoon of June 8, 2009. The cameras below are from the local news media, who covered the event. The camera is mounted on the nose of Santa Fe fp-45 #93.
Nice, I caught this guy east of Newton, KS
