You had me going that is for sure, Hemingway did do elk hunting in the mountain West as a quick Google will confirm...
Unfortunately we still have not answered the original question posed by Mr. West as to if and where the San Juan was refueled enroute. This is important stuff as I may be called to crew a recreated San Juan ( in 1:48 scale) this Saturday so time is of the essence. And yes this RR does have an operating coal and water tank at Chama the contents of which are dispensed in the minds eye...
