Raton Pass Tracks

$29.99

As a part of the old Santa Fe trail between Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Kansas City, Missouri, Raton Pass was a focal point for the Colorado Railroad Wars between the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad and the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad.

Eventually, the ATSF would gain the rights to build their line between Trinidad, Colorado and Albuquerque, New Mexico, over Raton Pass. The route features gradients of 3.5 percent up to the summit and a summit of 7,588, the highest point on the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe’s tracks.

Today, Interstate 25 parallels the railroad through the pass.
