Lost locomotive lore-find in N.M.

This morning's Durango Herald has a story (page 3) about the remains of a 1927 Heisler found in the Sacramento Mounrains near Cloudcroft. Apparently the locomotive blew up in 1938 and the pieces were disposed of in a canyon near the old lumber town of Marcia. Like many of these tales, a few peop-le knew about it for some time.
The Alamogordo and Sacramento Mountain (later SP)was a standard gauge road built like a narrow gauge line, with sharp curves and high trestles. Atop the range the line was fed by a lumber operations that ran until the early 1940s. The line last operated in 1947, but two of its spectacular trestles still stand.
