A third rail to Alamosa would certainly be interesting, but for now, let's enjoy the fact that you can ride from Alamosa to Antonito on standard gauge equipment. Quite frankly, having driven that stretch a number of times, I'd far rather enjoy it from the comfort of an air-conditioned streamlined passenger car. I don't find the scenery anywhere near as spectacular as that between Antonito and Chama to where I'd be wanting to hang out on the platform or in an open gondola.
Later,
