Description
The Santa Fe rails were the first to reach the end of the line in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The diesel passenger trains were a form of luxury in their days. The railway became popular due to Harvey House's fine cuisine and Harvey's girls. Now the Atchinson County Historical Society Museum wants to honor the depot and railway by planning a park to surround the depot.
