I know you chased the first weekend of the Craft trips, cause I met you then. If you rode the second weekend of trips we stopped at Martinez Point and did 2 runbys there. Quite nice. I think that's where all the ballast the RR uses comes from. You usually see a pile around MP 305 as well which I think came from there. I guess they still get rock from there, but not sure really. Anyway in 1992 it made for some nice runbys. Need to pull out my dvd and watch that sometime. You don't see many photos in that area during Rio Grande days!!!
