San Juan's huh? Great name!

Cumbres Pass is a very appropriate terminal. After all, the railroad is named CUMBRES and Toltec, and not Chama, Cumbres, Lava and Antonito!

OK, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe didn't exactly reach corporate maturity hauling turnips from Atchison and Santa Fe, but there is a ring of political correctness with trains originating at the pass.
