    Hmmm.. Ballparks. Would seem North American. And arid. Check out the transfer table, TT, and the massive shops. I wonder?

    I thought U.S. at first, but so many other places also play baseball in the western hemishphere. Japan, too, but I don't think Japan has anywhere this arid.

    Just how many railroads entered ABQ? ATSF seems a natural choice, but beyond that, I have no idea.

    That is the Santa Fe's yard. They tore down the roundhouse some years ago. Just to the right (or south of the second photo) a ways would be a autorack unloading area , and just out of the picture to the left of the top picture would have been the old Fred Harvey house and hotel (also torn down by a bunch of dumb A***) and that would also be where Central Ave (formerly route 66) goes under the tracks .
