Santa Fe Railway Harvey House at Belen, NM

Belen, the Spanish version of Bethlehem, was established on the west bank of the Rio Grande in 1740. In 1984, the Santa Fe installed CTC between Belen and Gallup. Engines 5367, 5628, and 5335 lead train 589 out of at Belen on December 23, 1985. Behind the engines in the first picture is the Belen Harvey House. It is now a railroad museum and home to a model railroad club.

The Santa Fe later built a new crew office and parking lot just to the left of the locomotives.

The double track line to Barstow curves off to the left. The line up to Albuquerque goes to the right. The new Rail Runner commuter station was built just to the right of the silver M/W cars. The mountain in the background is near Los Lunas. To the west of this mountain is the junction with the passenger line out of Albuquerque at Dalies. Disk 62
