Santa Fe Consol

In the town of Wickenburg, Arizona a nice Santa Fe 2-8-0 is on display which we had seen before.  This time, however, the cab was open to the public and has evidently been recently restored.   It  seems that all the hardware is in place, and they don't appear to have had any problems with theft or vandalism, so that's good.  A clipboard left in the cab tells you everything you might want to know.








In Arizona you generally have a loooong distance to drive from one item of railroad interest to the next, so that's about it for this trip.  But since I have a daughter who lives there, we plan to keep going back every year.  Railfanning suggestions are welcome.
